Likewise

Iβll just stay,
But I donβt want to crack in your embrace. β hate to see your faith in me misplaced.
As I see the tears well in your gaze.
I canβt face,
This feeling that youβll just replace β me and all the memories that weβve made.
Guess I should have known that Iβm a phase.
You canβt wait,
To ease your back from all the weight β to punish me for the habits you hate.
Listing all the reasons it this way.
You have changed,
I wish I could have been there from the start β wish I Β could have addressed you at the heart.
But I shut the door and you fell apart.
Itβs too late.
Just go and forget the picture of my face β Let I know now - I need my cage.
I hope that youβll just leave me to waste away.
Between the distractions and confusions.
The setbacks and diffusions β in my mind β through the illusion.
Iβm sorry.
That I didnβt see you.

A soulful and heartfelt apology written most beautifully etched through with recriminations and self flagulation Max...excellent x
Why thank you Marion. This one was written though a time. I'm glad at least you enjoyed the read. This one I can confirm was written from my core... again thank you so so much.
My goodness Max, the sadness weighted through this write forces the reader to feel Β that lingering remorse you so dutifully penned here. It is in falling that we learn about who we are in the minds of others. It doesnβt always reflect the person we whole heartedly wish we could be. And it is in our losses that we discover what true value means. I felt that all here in this emotional write. So very well penned x
Hi Gwen. Sorry I missed your comment. Yes this one was a very emotional write. To be honest it came at a time that my mind was telling myself my heart didn't like to hear. If that makes any sense. The heart always wins one way or another. I can say I am in a much happier place now. Thank you once again for your kind comment. A comment on this one was greatly appreciated. Thanks Gwen, I hope you are doing well my friend.
Hi Max, I am glad to hear you are in a happier place. Life can feel so challenging, especially when our heart and mind are in conflicting places. I am plodding on as you do. I hope you post more poetry soon my friend. Your words are missed xΒ
