I’ve been practicing king pigeon pose more than usual these days.

It hurts, and we feel like paying back, making the offender suffer just like we did.

There are some people you like who you’ve always liked, and there are people who you used to like but don’t anymore. There are also people you like now that you used to dislike, and there are people you dislike who you’ve always disliked.

today
(and every single day)
i am grateful for you

and when i think about it
you were truly
a miracle

between us
it always felt right

if you can’t be grateful
with what you have now

i know
it is not the life you had hoped for me

i wish
there were
fewer
unspoken words
between us

you
are only
hurting yourself
by seeing all that is
wrong with the world
