Tag: moving on

 

I tried solitude

And the long ethereal walks

In the woods

Tried sobbing night

After day

Clearing no cobwebs

Of remorse

I tried soaking

In a marathon swim

But tears refuse to heal

And water

Rebuffed a cleanse

I tried chatting cuties

Talking to anyone

About everything

And when  there was nought

I found a shrink

Who took the money

But not the pain

Nothing quenches

The flames

Nothing

Nothing fills

The voids

Since you walked

Away
