"Chasm" Inspired by Great or Nothing:

Chasm

Emotions running high

a series of bad days

unfiltered words released

and then, seemingly suddenly,

nothing is the same.

A chasm is formed

and the aftermath leaves

each party to the argument

too tired to even dream of

a bridge.

Before the chasm,

love overcame every crack from

argument and misunderstanding.

We’ve never been separated

this far from each other

by pride, emotion, or distance.

Now each party to the argument

longs for a bridge—

if only we knew how to start.
