Severed

Jennifer Wright
Your mask does not hide your face

but, now your face has no name

to me.

A mother, a friend, a sister

a place for comfort,

is now no place to be.

Tossed away, turned away.

Kept from knowing.

Blind.

Too good for me, too good for him,

too good for them.

Judged.

I gave you heart, I gave you soul

gave too much.

Loss.

Pain inside, tears I cry,

fallen angel in my life

Confusion.

I want you back, I want my friend,

but, I won't let you hurt me again.

Severed.
