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?

these words are more than heartbreaking, they are heart-shattering. pain and loneliness echo in each line. no matter how many tell you "we are here", this place that these words build leave you blind and deaf to  the voices. we are here to help, love you, and lend you strength  until  you can be

Two immensely sad poems. I hear arguments and silence in these, minor disagreements magnified into major conflicts, and deep hurt. If you hear my hand on yours, close enough to ease pain, then poetry has done its task. 

a bad few days ... nearly back to normal ..xoxo
