you would
like to hand your heart to her
and say
touch it
but then
give it back.”

“those who escape hell
however
never talk about

and nothing much
bothers them
after

than being alone
but it often takes

and most often when you do
it's too late
and there's nothing worse
than too late”
― Charles Bukowski
