Tired of

Advertisements

The lies and the blame you want to put on everyone but yourself.

Because at the end of the day it’s someone else that made you mad and upset.

Someone else that ruined your day or week.

But, once you’ve run them all off

Who and what will you have left?

Because once they leave no one will believe your lies and you will feel alone again with no one to save you the next time around.

What am I

Advertisements

Waiting for as everything just goes down hill.

The frustration is strong and the demand to get it done is ridiculous.

As the anger boils up with nothing left but ashes when I’m done.

Nothing matters anymore as all I see is red and all I want is for the bullshit to end so I can walk way with a smile on my face and the termination of knowing it will not matter in the end

Tomorrow will not be worth it in the end I know I won’t be.

Denial

I could deny that I don’t feel like there was so much more that I needed to say before you closed your eyes and let everything go.

I could have told you the truth and maybe then we both wouldn’t be standing on two different tracks but standing together.

Maybe I wouldn’t be so sad and you wouldn’t be so mad and confused and all the answers we both needed to hear wouldn’t still be mystery to us now.

Maybe your smile would be shining so bright right now instead all I see is a frown on your face.

And maybe seeing you know surround by the people who always have your back would make me happy because, I could just walk over and join you and spend the night laughing so hard that tears comes to my eyes.

You held so much apart of my life that now it just feels like a puzzle that will always be missing the pieces that make it come together.

If only I had the courage to tell you the truth and bring us back together and be as close as we used to be.

#MayBook Prompt

The fury inside of you!

Advertisements

The sound of your voice when its calm

Is lovely and sweet and pure.

But when your mad it becomes out strong and determined

It makes you realize how, you are upset and you make sure.

It comes across crystal clear that you won’t tolerate ignorance or disrespect ever.

The sound of your fury is quite frightening, it makes every bone in my body shake.

I hate to see you mad for, sometimes the tears fall

And you shake for the anger is too much to content.

But you use all the strength you have to keep your

Hands to yourself.

And you close your mouth and try so hard to keep

the nasty words to yourself for tomorrow is a new day

And by then the fight or argument will be over.
