It is a lie.
I can’t get into your skin
nor see the blight on your soul
nor know the wealth of your life
in the darkness and the light.
It seems to me – and I could be wrong –
these four words
discount the other’s experience
dismiss the depth of a friend’s feeling.
Can’t I come up with something more creative?
Ask a question to find out more?
Have NOT been there
like you have.

Some people in life you'll meet may think and say that ignorance is bliss,
while some others around will refute the idea as nonsense and so dismiss.
They may also add that if we don't know about something it probably wont hurt
but, if we do know, it can make a world of difference and thus any danger avert.

I long...
For you to hold my hands
while doing everything we planned.
For you to whisper in my ears
as you drive away my fears.
For you to be my light
Every time darkness covers my sight.
For me to listen to your heart's beat,
each moment we meet.
As much as I want this, reality strikes and it's hard to dismiss.
That even if I know this is all wrong, it's still you I always long.

I'm never worth the time
It seems
To invest in, in any way
Unraveling seams
Silent screams
No matter how I splay
I fail to see
What you see in me
Based on words you choose
Unless of course
I'm your dead horse
Hanging from your noose
Dragged around
On the ground
Through the muck and mire
Gripping blight
Unseen plight
In shadows, I expire
Loveless love
minim shoves
Kept at arms length distance
What must I do
To get you to
Notice my decaying consistence
Actions and words
You infer
Splinters of remiss
What it shows
In my woes
I'm easy to dismiss

weak aural colour
finding no worthy signal
