Phlato
May 9, 2018
I grab at memories that spark tidal
waves of emotions;
I refuse forget–
I am also phthalo blue.
A resentment–
a gentle ebbing and flowing
reminding me to keep on going
while floating back to the past.
Tears tear down cheekbones
and gentle gasps
can't be contained
as I curl up into myself,
my memories, flooded with
perfect, phthalo blue.
