tim's Bits and Pieces - 51. There Are Men I Love

i think the title says it all ...

1.

How many times will my heart break before it’s irreparable?

I cannot count the tears I’ve shed over you

You’re like our child

I know you hurt

I know that’s why you hurt me, over and over

And it’s why I let you

Because you don’t mean to

Because you need someone to hear you

And I do

I hear you

My heart and door are always open

You do not have to be alone

 

 

 

2.

Hearts are broken by soul destroying words

Leaving us bereft, alone; filled with hopelessness

Shells of ourselves wander through the sameness of days

Breathing automatons who do the right things so ...

the normal among us leave them alone

So heavy is their pain they no longer see

the bright beads of happiness

... scattered ...

here and there

 

 

 

3.

there are men I love

not destined to be lovers

they are friends, collaborators, soulmates

what I feel for them surprises me daily

the depth of this love

… an ocean.

All three of these poems are beautiful and wonderful tim. I'll need more time to reflect on them, but I feel the emotions in these. That first one, I've experienced more times than I want to admit.
