Poem: Two Years Since I was finally able to release you from these bones

It has been two years since I traveled to these shores.
Two years since I was finally able to release you from these bones.
Scores of scars
Brittle and bitter
Love that never made sense
Nor should it have

It has been two years since I traveled to these shores.
Two years since I was finally able to release you from these bones.
Remnants and ashes
Tears and anguish
Love that shredded this soul
Never repaired in your lifetime

It has been two years since I traveled to these shores.
Two years since I was finally able to release you from these bones.
Grieving into healing
Healing into repairing
Bones redeemed from deep-rooted pain
