the pain
of having to let you
go your way

after such loving days

pulls my face
   into a joyous smile
makes me speak
   words of reassurance
   crack jokes
   ostentatiously enjoy
      a Manhattan at lunch time
   and boisterously hug you
      au revoir

anything
   to overcome
      unshed tears
      the hardening lump in my chest
      the tightening knot in my stomach
      the cold fist that grips my neck
      tightens my throat
      makes my eyes dry
      with the knowledge
         you will not be
         by my side
         for weeks

the bat
is         a creature         so
adept  at flight. it will  come
before the night. flitting high
and dipping low, it doesn't seem
to know where it goes! tho it seems
dark              and scary               folk
\/                       there                       \/
is

no need to be wary!

bats are beneficial
they eat insects and
pollinate flowers

wade

A note to me:
Don't try to talk about things
you don't understand.

Nothing hurts me like your words do
So I get mad and I hurt you

Then you blame me
Say I'm crazy
Wanna leave me
But you need me
Though your angry

But I used to love you
And, ****, I still do
And that's true

And I'm not lying
Got nothing to be denying
But I bet we'll still be fighting
Till I'm alone and I'm crying

But I used to love you
And, ****, I still do
And that's true

I can't imagine my life with anyone but you
I ******* love you
And that's true
A love poem.
