Ophelia

Veins split open
Yet they do not bleed
Escaping, only a river of sorrow
Furious
Torrential
Free
Churned atop the rapids
I gasp for the ghost of your kiss
But all i breathe is pain
Sticky
Red
And sweet

[Carlos Lorenzo Estrada]

Provocative and powerful imagery meant to elicit response and relatable compassion. We have all recognized this moment within our own lives and failed loves. A yearning that continues to resonate long after its end. Excellent poem. Thank you for sharing.

Powerful, full of passion
You dont afraid to express your dark side
Made me think , its like a crack that allowed me to read your thoughts
