Title: Poem an Employee Wrote for Me Post-Break up

This might be helpful for you as you detach... .

____________

When You Are Broken
 
It will split you into a million bright shining pieces
and cast you onto the floor of a shallow sea.
 
And the sound of the waves will rub off all of your hardened edges
and your sharp corners will grow smooth and cool and easy to touch.
 
And the movement of the great water will turn your angles into curves
and you will not be what you once were.
 
You will be moved.
You will be changed.
You will be a vast and complicated system
of moving parts
that make a brand-new sound
in an old world
that needs your song.

Here's one I wrote a while ago when I was still angry.
Semi Auto-biographical, but it was of an effort to communicate the contrast between the powerful opposing emotions during idolisation & devaluation, to try give a sense of the shock.
Would work better as imagery.


Seduced; moonlit 
Adored; commit   
This is IT!  

 :sign_attn: Split!  :sign_attn:

Shamed - BULLS***  red-flag
Projection - HYPOCRITE! red-flag  red-flag
Triangulated & Gaslit.  red-flag
 
Betrayed - throw a fit
Framed... .quit
acquit, quit, quit.

Stalked, near hit
God Damn it!

Smeared, Mistfit Piece of s***

(I won't print the rest - like I said, I was angry at the time)
