Crushed,
realizing we are done,
understanding there is nothing left,
seeing you for your true self,
hearing your real words,
elevating to my new awareness,
dismissed by you no longer...
Now I am free
once more...
Making decisions
on my terms, now I can
rest my head upon my pillow
effortlessly...
In a list

You captured the cycle of breakups very well in this short but animated poem. We have all been there and indeed it is crushing at first but when you are finally able to hold your head high again then you realize it will all be okay... Wonderfully written!
(Thanks for commenting my piece by the way)
Love and luck in all you endeavor!

It's always good when we finally see people without their masks on, but it's sad to realize who they really are sometimes. Then again, sometimes it can be a real good thing, like in this case, being free is a good thing, usually
GREAT job
