Image for the poem Actions

Actions

Nothing I do
Works for you
Nothing I say
Changes your ways

Time alone
Is all that's needed
Never too much
To spend with self

Actions speak volumes
What's really going on
Just when I think I got it
It got me

Bending me
Breaking me
Tears of near unbearable pain
Wondering what really is

No understanding
No sympathy
No caring
No empathy

Caring requires commitment
Caring requires movement
Caring requires availability
Caring requires vulnerability

Imprisoned in one's own skin
Can't figure it out
Want in - Want out
Can't move

Merry-go-round syndrome
Whence it came
Where it goes
No one really knows

Actions and non-actions
Aways louder than words
Need not say more
Do you want let go?
