“Absense”

~ Jai Lynn

did you
see
as I drowned
in the sea?

did you
see
that I wasn’t being
me?

did you
see
that my lock
had lost its key?

did you
see
that I was down
on my knee?

did you
see
I thought we were meant
to be?

did you
see
that now I cut you
free?

did you
see
the red strings cut
to one from we.

No.

You didn’t.

Name's Jai Lynn, Jai like blue jay and Lynn which rhymes with sin. Speaking of sins, life is too short to not do what you're passionate about. So, I'm going to write. Welcome to my domain of poetry, short fiction, and (if you look for it) a little magic too.
