Burn rubber

When you've had enough, you've had enough.

I can't believe I left. Sitting here in my car

 trying to forget you and sort my life out again.

 This time alone. That word alone. Like an empty 

house stripped of its remnants. Picked clean by 

vultures, Much like my heart. You took from it what

 you wanted and left it in Ruins. I turned away from

 you and all I cherished. All I had accomplished was

 lost in my dust As I headed towards my freedom.

 I'm home again having to start over , to heal my

 heart and rebuild my life.

Such honest but raw pain.. how hurt you are but, also, so courageous. Here you are at the end of your poem, announcing your intention - ' headed towards my freedom. I'm home again having to start over , to heal my heart and rebuild my life. '

If your poem is true and was written 2021, I truly hope you're happier and more settled now.. Hugs and best wishes for 2024

Wow. I know this feeling so completely. It's always difficult to start over at the beginning with nothing, not even the hopes and dreams we once had for ourselves. The later in life the resurrection needs to apply, the more difficult it seems to rise. This was a painful piece but sometimes we must suffer whatever it takes to get back the pieces of ourselves we've given away or had stolen. Great write full of honest reflection. Bless, F.

Sometimes we just have to rebuild alone before we can share our heart's dwelling with another.

Visually impactful. To feel your heart is like a carcas picked clean by a vulture is the pits. Takes courage to say enough us enough. Taking control is the best thing you can do in this type of situation.

Takes strength to act - especially when there are known consequences as well as unknown ones.
