bitter/sweet
her bittersweet sickness
curls in my chest
lingering.
she twists my mind
into a pile of inarticulate
gibberish.
i hate her.
her poison has no
physicality
it rests in fear
in dark places
my mind refuses to
linger.
i cannot rid myself of her
instead i bask in bitterness,
cling to sweetness
in fleeting spots of sunshine.

This speaks to trying to chase, to hold onto, and bask in the sunshine while you can.
