Couldn't sleep last night
can't sleep now
another restless one ahead
my stomaches been in
knots for days
Today she came home
i didn't see her
never made the effort
had no desire, i cut her out
unsure how to graft her
back in or even dare
How can i? when my gut
tells me, nothings changed
told her to forget the past
even though i see it
Gawd! i dread going down
this road again
Sisters, once best friends
that was long ago
before the toxic blackness
came like a vengent destroyer
shattering lives in it's wake
claws scortching, deep festered
scars left behind
My life turned upside down
in a blink she was gone
the chaos was lifted
left with more responsiblity
yet that was ok
there was a peace
in knowing i could do this
Now she's back my head screams
"It wasn't long enough." but
my heart whispers deep inside
"Tomarrows another day, perhaps
your feelings will change."
yet i can't help but wonder
is it the other way around
ever toxic?
I liked the choppy nature of this one. It fit well with the subject matter, which was nicely articulated. Very tasty, Tasty! My favorite thus far... well, other than mine of course!
I enjoyed this poem <grin> the pushing and pulling of emotions was displayed marvelously. Toxic? all I can say is that the passion in your pen, moved me. (~_~) thanks for sharing~
