What I connect with you
Is covered in pain
In black mud and dirt
All over
I slip and I fall
Over it again
If we play the same
Old familiar game
And we're both not that bad
No bad people indeed
But the hurt that's inside
Makes us lose our mind
It's my frustration speaking
Or shall I rather say weeping?
For a part of me knows
I don't want to let go.
Close to giving up on us
Closer than ever before
Maybe that's the only way
To be free and sane again
I am not ready to suffer
Until one day we will die
I need more than that
From this one and only life
Hoping you'll understand
My perspective someday
And that I won't regret
Whatever I'm gonna say
Trust me, all the dark mud
On our lips, in our hearts
Sealed up all the love left
Which was there at the start
Now when I am looking up
I am feeling empty
Looking at the stars
So bright, but I was beaten by envy
I know deep inside
A part of me hates me
I hate me for the fact
That I failed to connect
That I failed to understand
My problem at it's core so that
I would know better and not regret
The decision I made based on that
I need now to accept the truth
But it's so painful
Having you
Beneath me
That's why my mind is looking
For a way -
to keep the distance
And to stay away
Even though it's not less painful that way.
What else should I say?
Have I done enough? Really?
Or am I simply sick of being the sick one after all?
How about what did go wrong in your childhood and home?
Is the trigger problem really only me?
Or is it both of us and we are both trying to be free...
No answer to my feelings, thoughts and states remains
Because the more I try the more I fail
To see and understand.
My mind is full of images
I can't pretend.
I need to know.
What I want after all.
******, life makes you wanna have a second chance. All over again. Till the end.
Feeling not much better than before.
But I know my dilemma is that all.
11/2023: Difficult relationship situation. Repeating painful cycles in conditioned patterns, hurting each other. I was looking for a way out of this, feeling guilty and desperate. Questioning everything. As always putting my complicated feelings and thoughts into words..
I am in a much better place now. Grateful to staying persistent and being there for myself in the most difficult times such as described in the poem.
