For All The Grief

For all the grief
An empty doorway
For love
Leaning grasses
And two lights
Above the sea

A poem should not mean
Just you and me
So why can’t you see
Why don’t you love me
As much as i
Love you
Want you
Your hate
Your love
Your disappointment

You jump into the sea
And try to pull me free
You made me this way
Drowning in my own hate
It used to hurt
I used to scream
But now i give in
I let the salt
Fill my lungs
It doesn’t hurt
Anymore

For that
For teaching me
I should thank you
Giving in to the pain
The suffering
Because in the end
I am salt
Inside and out.
