Is it really possible to live after love? I'm not sure but that is the subject of this poem?
 



Learning to Live Again 

~ 

I've closed the door. 

Locked it tight, 

threw away the key. 

No one enters, 

no escape. 

~ 

I'm a shell. 

Don't want to pretend. 

Won't deal with the pain. 

Can't live without your love. 

What's my name? 

~ 

The mask in place. 

The blinds pulled. 

No one will see 

how hurt I am. 

No one will know 

how much I love you. 

~ 

The world is my oyster. 

To do with as I please. 

I'm to live again. 

Wonder what kind 

it will be.
