Another Ode (a response) | by D.E. Benson | Poetry

.
"my heart explodes
with you"
                 - JK Anowe, Ode
.
i close my eyes
and see all the things i couldn't be
before i blew to pieces
.
before i became ash
drifting in dark places
in search of an end
.
an end to you
.
an end to this feeling
stuck in the back of my eyes grief
that refuse to be shed
.
i surrender to you
a bird hit midflight by fate
as i spread my wings and soul
.
to sink
