Today

By Buzby

Topics: Poetry Source: AllPoetry Original source

Today I took stock of my life realised that I have grieved too long. Today I wore something other than black - It felt good Today I did not weep for you, I heard my favourite record laughed at the Garfied comic strip. Today - It felt good Today my mascara stayed there, when the phone rang; I picked it up. Today I saw colours other than black – it felt good. Today I stopped punishing me, I decided to live again. Finally, I let go of you. Today - It felt good Written January 9th, 2002 © on Jan 08 2002 04:13 PM PST   0 • 12
