tarnish
andrea
a
realization
gone
sour
i
finally
understand
how
it
is
to
be
nerves
numbed
by
cold
fact
and
harsh
abandonment
i
forfeit
it
all
just
to
know
why
the
past
colors
my
thoughts
red
i
cry
tears
of
rage
my
concentration
quivers
and
quakes
so
does
my
hand
until
it
is
seized
my
an
enlightened
one
who
professes
to
know
the
true
path
to
the
part
of
the
forest
where
the
tree
sing
and
the
birds
dance
instead
i
find
myself
aside
a
brown
creek
edged
with
mossy
rocks
the
flashbacks
keep
me
paralyzed
how
can
the
past
linger
for
so
long
?

The
birds
set
the
rhythm
The
trees
dance
when
heads
turn
My
thoughts
swirl
and
drowned
in
the
cacophony
of
the
leaves
harassed
by
the
breeze
transforming
conversation
to
gossip
.
