Twelve Month Long Goodbye
Venus is speaking, mars is silent
Where is the man I can't let go of?
Why was he so able to let me go?
Orion is on fire, a plane passing by is turned red by its glow
Attachment feels like love,
Tears flow and still the pain remains
Still trees, fast cars on the midnight highway
The night is empty of warmth; full of old ghosts
I feel like one of them
Courtyard lights are looking fuzzy
My resolve to leave him behind is flimsy
Life without him seems dim
Somewhere buried deep is the woman who can move on
I can't seem to find a shovel to save her
Or maybe I just don't want to move on
Maybe I am hurt that you were able to so easily
Maybe I shouldn't give myself so much credit
Maybe you never loved me as you said
Maybe maybe maybe
Maybe will never satisfy
Sleep comes to comfort
Dreams come to inspire
Tomorrow she is freed

The C.D. in my car this morning said something about people “wanting to want more than wanting to have”, that and this poem kind of go hand in hand.
Bless you, Cova, we're here for you. All of us.
