This is it all
You & I
Need to forget everything we know
Whatever this is
Was broken by you
I trusted but shouldn’t
Silence was your favorite answer
As if
You win by being a
Tin man
You can go without
Love or a
Heart
But if anyone asks
What we were about
Remember I wanted to be yours

Golden Shovel Poem
Used the line
“All I know is you shouldn’t answer if a man with a heart asks about yours” from Stephen Dunn’s poem The End of Secrecy

I’m just a human trying to make it in this world. I write about heartbreak, loneliness, longing, anger, family—all the things I can’t seem to leave alone. Everything I write is about me, even when it’s about someone else.
