timmy's poetry - 58. Goodbyes
1.
There are things I should and shouldn’t do
That’s what ive learned recently
Getting close isn’t good; not for me or for you
So I’ll return to my sparse aloneness
It’s so much quieter and safer there
I’ll hide my head in my hands
Not meet your eyes or smile your way
I’m better off in the dark
Away from the cold light of day
2.
We struggle so much you and me
Living in discordant harmony
Breaks my poor tired heart
Thinking that soon we may part
I love you, I want you to know
Just in case it doesn’t show
Recently I’ve felt your cool neglect
We’re in the midst of a disconnect
I am not this strong unemotional thing
Your shifting moods are baffling
I reach out to you because you are strong
Where have I gone so wrong?
