I know how it feels to be empty

I know how it feels to be loved

I don't know how to feel since

you walked out of my life

Taking back your name

Denying me

A goodbye

Now I

    To me it means getting to know self.

    I love how this poem leaves me hanging, like the literary equivalent of stepping into thin air. Great example of art where the scaffolding is invisible. I felt this like a punch in the gut. Simply brilliant, Kelli!
