My Heart

Shoved unceremoniously

underneath, behind, away

My heart lay in the black,

Forgotten for years

Gathering dust bunnies, mold,

random insect parts.


But you found it.


You hosed off

The sticky fuzz of past grievances

Deemed it worthy.

Now my heart is yours.

  5. I have a feeling the wry voice I heard in my head when I read "random insect parts" is pretty close to your true voice.
