Sickness

once again

the sickness settles

in my tummy,

nausea

takes over my life-

counting down the days

until the second trimester.

Here we go again, going to be the longest 7 months of my life 🙃

Deep rooted

this tiredness

stretches beyond my bones

and nestles into my soul.

Bare minimum

I used to think

I was asking

a lot of you,

until I realized

it was the

bare minimum.

Demons

you’ve been

with me for so long

I fear to lose you

and

myself.

Truth hurts

my truth

sat in the air

between us –

your silence

deafening,

louder than

any words

you’ve ever shared

with me-

your body

a spark of anger

ready to ignite.

Realization

I’ve accepted,

I’m not someone

you are willing to grow for.

-Jas

Nightmare

I’m loneliest

in your company;

my once favorite spot

has become my nightmare.

imprint

It was the way

the taste of your lips

imprinted on my brain,

forever.

silent destruction

little by little

I have pieces of myself away;

you bettered yourself,

while I silently crumbled.

Unsaid

I sat terrified

of the things left unsaid-

words clung to the air

but refused to drop,

troubled thoughts

suspended between

lovers.
