another try

as i sit here and write
i pray words will come
flow from my fingers
and onto my screen

i've tried this a few times
but it never works out
to get of my chest
all the hurt and the dough

i'm not good with big words
don't have the vocabulary
to wow you to speechless
or impact on your life

but there's thing i must say
i can no-longer pretend
please sit with me here
and just hear me out

i may get this wrong
screw it all up in the end
if i do then i'm sorry
let me say that before i begin

you say that you know me
but the truth really is
i don't know myself
and there's no way you can

we once shared a bond
thicker then thieves
but somewhere we lost that
its just no longer there

i need you to see me
open your eyes
to stop for a moment
and hear what i say

i know i'm at fault here
that i to need to change
but i need you to understand
before its to late

we don't seem to share
the same love that we once did
whats important to me
just isn't for you

vise and versea
it goes both ways
we don't talk any more
we both run away

me i'm a hider
i bury within
you your a runner
take off every-time

i miss all the things
the looks and the words
the way you once touched me
and the passion that burnt

we both need to decided
if what left is worth saving
we cant keep pretending

we need to stop lieing 


be it together or be it a part
the truth needs to be faced
common ground needs to be found
and we have to work it out

    How true it is that we don't even know ourselves
    How easily we take each other for granted, and don't realise until it is too late the support we had until it is gone. Then we look for someone else with the good parts and none of the bad. What we are seeing so often, is the darker side of ourselves reflected in someone else. when we are perfect, the world will be perfect, until then we will see imperfection reflecting back from all around us
    An interesting poem/story
    Take care

    Oh boy! I can relate to this. How come you know about my life? I think many others will know exactly how you feel as well. You write from the heart and I like that very much. Well done Sheila
