For the sake of love, she has learned to tame her tongue, to hide her voice when it isn’t in tune with your tone, to put her joy after your smile. Loving you has meant putting what she loves behind those loves, and enough of the loveless pages in this love story is forcing her hand to rewrite everything. She sees it now, that love itself isn’t all about sacrificing herself just because it demands sacrifices. The pen is finding its way back to her.

If this found you, there is more where it came from. I am Pierre Jeanty. I write poems about heartbreak, women in different phases of love and self-discovery, and the things people feel but never find the words for. Poems like this one live in “Ashes of Her Love”. It is in my shop.
