A Couple Of Poems, For Your Viewing/Reading Pleasure (Yeah, Right)

[desertions]

I have alot to say right now, but no idea how to say it, so instead, I shall post a couple of poems I've written recently



Waiting Space

As we walk past one another

We pause, as if about to speak

But instead we both keep walking on

Each of us silently suffering

When things ended so suddenly

So much was left unsaid

It pains me that we’ve come to this

But I’m at a loss of what to do

IF I tried to talk now

I fear my words would run away

So I continue in this waiting space

Until the day finally comes

Where out friendship is no longer fake and uneasy

And we can discuss went wrong

Was it the wrong time?

The wrong way?

The wrong feelings?

The wrong us?

I fear so many of the answers

Yet I want them all the same





My Mother The Child

I realize you’re used to being a victim

You’ve been one your whole life

But could you just mature for a moment

In order to be a real mom

I shouldn’t have to censor everything

In order to protect your fragile feelings

And if I’m the child here

Why am I the one always comforting you

Mommy, can’t you see I’m tired

Of having to be the “stable” one

I hate seeing you upset

Yet taking care of you drains me

So what do I do, continue to pretend

Or maybe just turn and run from the problem

This would be easier, Mommy

If for once you were a mother and not a child

I really needed a mother, Mommy

But I got stuck with a grown up child



More when I straighten out thoughts, if I do so of course....
