This perfectly encapsulates the chaos that can surround a broken heart and the leaving of someone we care so much about.

Congratulations on this well-deserved win! Absolutely beautiful! Poignant and so touching. I love the below lines:

From the moment
you left
I felt a howl inside of me
one that never
leaves, only quiets -
and sometimes
it's so loud
it shakes my teeth.

AND

My tongue swells up
and a soft keening
is all the noise
I can make.
