Relations

7/26/21
I miss you
Not really sure what I miss but I miss you
That’s a lie

I miss your face in front of mine
The way you pass off my truth for fiction
Did I not articulate myself correctly?
Or is your fear brain jumbling my words?

Sitting across from you eating makes me feel comfortable
If you knew me better you’d understand how odd that truly is
But you backed away; healing is a process

I showed you a side only a few people see
Me at my weakest, letting my imagination run wild with doubt and fear
Did I turn you off?
Did seeing that side of me scare you away?

Funny how you don’t want a relationship but you are fine with relations…
What does it take to get the hip?

I know I drop the mic; once I find love again I’ll be a little softer.
Until then my edge keeps my heart safe

You can’t make someone see the potential in you. I’ll be over here writing poems about unrequited love and missing their presence .
