and he wondered

Dismissal

The great puzzle
lay in the difficulty
of a civil
and sensible reply to the ignominious
and abrupt dismissal
of the heart.

Most Men

How can he leave her?
Women: he seemed to run from them -
was he to blame, he like most men,
believe loving a woman eternally
isn't compatable
and already it is tomorrow.

Rejected Lover

Posted on April 19, 2021August 2, 2022 by Erin B.
With her impulses,
I think she is as blindingly destructive
as a rejected lover.

Nobody Here

Posted on April 7, 2021October 23, 2022 by Erin B.
There's nobody here
with me.
I dread sleeping:
my dreams are bitter
and my face
bathed in tears.
