What Lies Within Us
What is the flaw within us
that doesn’t believe we are good enough
for good love
Why is it easier to accept
the love
which isn’t really love
but merely sickness masquerading
We give them the benefit of the doubt
because we believe
we can see the possibilities inside them
of which there are none
and even if there were potential
it’s not up to us to nurture them
Brother of mine
do not make the same mistakes I have made
it will not get better
but only worse every time
until it will culminate
into something she can’t take back
Run away from her little brother
as fast as you can
as far as you can
It may be lonely for awhile
but not as lonely as a tomb
Oh, man…been there, done that. But never ever thought of a tomb. Nobody’s that good! it’s a fun poem…well, in a possible downer way
I was meaning that if he allows it to continue, it will only end up escalating, and who knows what she would do if she got pissed off enough. Sad. Just very sad.
yeah…I get it. Life is life, people are people, sad is sad.
I just discovered this blog, and I’m officially in love with you. You have an effervescent way with words, my friend.
Thanks so much!! And welcome!
