Lost in Your Current
The elements of (painful) love

You're angry again
spit fire, ablaze, inferno.
I cover my ears.
Your harsh words, they grit
clog my arteries with sand
grind me down like earth.
"I'm sorry" blows in-
winds of change, vacant regret.
Sweet (saccharin) gusts.
Still, I drown in you.
Your promises dissolve me.
Lost in your current.
