MAGGIE BOWYERIs this pain ripping me, ripping us apart, really just psychosomatic?
MAGGIE BOWYERI screamed and cried but only because i wanted to make this right. Instead, I sat alone, shivering watching the evening turn into night.
MAGGIE BOWYERBe proud of a body that bares the burden of being buried only to bloom.
MAGGIE BOWYERThere are versions of myself I will never recover, stolen by moments i will forever remember.
MAGGIE BOWYERThere are days I want to pretend you are just a call away.
MAGGIE BOWYERMy wells have run dry, but not because i miss you any less, I finally accept that this is life.
MAGGIE BOWYERWhen you are starved for a moment of relief, you’ll eat their poison by the mouth full, no questions until the digestion leads to new problems.
MAGGIE BOWYERI’m not sure if I’m to blame for all my relationship failures. But when I look at the wreckage I am the only commonality.
MAGGIE BOWYERThese words crash over and threaten to destroy me. I cannot find the stars so far beneath these waves of insecurity and mistrust, their light has seemed to vanish.
MAGGIE BOWYERThe grace of being home is that i no longer have to waste energy on looking okay.
MAGGIE BOWYERYou’d read between my lines, You’d seen truths I had tried to deny all my life. You had read poems that were tucked neatly under my sheets, words I never meant anyone to read.
MAGGIE BOWYERI am an emotional equation, continually miscalculation, escalation, you should be elated!
MAGGIE BOWYERYou’ve retracted your rays of warmth. You’ve pulled the clouds to cover sunlight. I think everyone is growing more concerned as the days keep passing and you’re still absent.
MAGGIE BOWYERIt has been years now and you still remain, blood stains splattered across my brain. Its not that you were the first woman that I loved, you were the first person I memorized properly.
MAGGIE BOWYERI want to carve my insides out with a rusty spoon. It would be less painful.
MAGGIE BOWYERDon’t you know that shedding your pain only makes it reverberate.
