Like an Aching Tooth Removed

Sometimes the break-up has been waiting for too long

By Pluto WolnosciPublished 2 years ago • 1 min read

For months we'd stepped ‘round our combined hate;

the contempt had been audible.

Now with the act behind us

We can finally say

the truth we both feel.

This disaster:

sweet relief,

escape,

peace.
