Gushing Aftermath


Somehow it had finally stopped

the gushing from

somewhere

the red subsided

and became transparant

as

I

wept

my eyes uncontrollably welled up

I could feel the tension releasing

the pain was going    to         leave

I finally felt

free


and the waterfall came and left

and returned

and left

but I felt free

for once       that grasping tension

had loosened


I could fly,

and I did,

away from the horrors,

I could leave the world behind

ignore the past and start anew

never to be seen again from those

who knew me once.


I left the world swiftly

and never dared to look back
