Resolution

A Poem

I will forget you.

It will be like

You never existed.

My skin will regenerate

Into a new organ;

Pure.

Untouched by your filth.

My heart will be cleansed

And my brain will be washed

And my spirit will be replenished.

With the stroke of midnight,

I will be decontaminated

Of the malice

And the lies

And the anxiety

And the malcontent

That you heaped

And heaped

And heaped

Upon me.

I will forever remain

A new creature,

A species that has

Evolved into something

Out of your reach.

Out of your mind.

Out of your soul.

Left to be alone

But not lonely.

I will forever be one

Not half of a pair.

And this satisfies me

Beyond comprehension…

Because you cannot comprehend me.

You never could.

But me?

I can forget you.

Just watch and see how fast

Your existence vanishes

From my world.
