jux·ta·po·si·tion

no one ever told me

you could be in love

and mourn the death

of a love you used to know

your heart can swell

burst at seams

and also

sever and break

come undone

I didn’t know

you could feel

wholly whole

and

completely

broken

down and out

up up up

and circle back

I didn’t know

I could feel so lost

and so seen

all at once

until you

until him
