i'm still not at peace
with what life has done to me
it has left me with an open gash
that i can't seem to just let be
some days inevitably worse
like the upcoming holiday
i can't bear to scroll social media
though it's not even today
like pouring salt on a wound
reminding me what i already know
each momentous celebration pic
just reminds me of the blow
all the little broken pieces
i'm still trying to recollect
little bits of you
that i have to protect
i must pull myself together
there's so much left to go through
but when i'm so broken myself
how can i save you?
-soo hyun
