Amidst the chaos
#Dove soars ๐๏ธ
Over landscape, fractured
Over seas, splintered
Over cities, hollowed
Voices, severed
Through silence, widening
White against ruin
Breath against embers
Small heart, unbroken
Still skyward, climbing
Silent messenger of peaceโ๐ค

Was it a blessing or a curse
To survive
To not die
When he took a #hammer to my head
A knife to my throat
Should I have smiled when
He
Stuck that syringe in my neck
Right before the toxins I had drowned his coffee in
Sent him directly to hellโโ ๏ธ

Her face
A claustrophobic shroud
So
Suffocating
Was as oppressive as the vitriol she
Spewed
Oily-black
Her
Venomous syllables choking the air
As #hands closed around her scrawny neck
The
Relief to all
Was palpableโ

I wrote my question after reading
The first pages of everything youโd ever written
Let it ache along my edges
Let it roll around inside
For a while
Until
I felt
It
Turning me inside out
So
I
Threw it out
&
Let
The words #ring through the windโ

She was always winter to me
The embodiment of frost โ๏ธ
Of icy grace
Her touch a frozen chill
Her gaze a glacial embrace
Cold #exalted was she
Whose veins ran the chill of centuries-old snow
A frigid queen
Beneath the face of a soft moonโs glowโ
