Freezer Burn

by Raine Marie



He bruised my heart.
I placed it
in the freezer to heal.
In the middle of the night,
he ate it
believing it to be gelato.

I have replaced my heart
with a carton of chunky monkey.
It seems to work just fine.
My only concern
is what will become of me
once summer arrives.
