PROMPT — Who am I today?
It cracked me open.
I was in Love
and he loved me
I thought
I mean, you did say
I LOVE YOU
But I Don’t
love
you
I don’t love you
like
THAT
he said
Plunder my heart
DOWN,
Down,
down
You plunge me
Spiral into
a chasm
Depression
When I climb
broken, cut
Out this
story from
My gut
