The Hanged Man

An inverse poem

By Suze KayPublished 3 years ago • Updated 3 years ago • 1 min read

Before I die

I must suffer

So I may better love

Being alive

//

Nothing brings me comfort

When I fight for what I want

But cannot claim it

I have learned my lesson

//

To solve the puzzle

I flip myself

Like a white flag in the wind

I am surrendering to mystery
