"polyam" poems
I am constantly checking myself
When problematic thoughts enter my mind
Or negative feelings originate in
The messed up ways I've been socialized to think
I do not wish to own anyone or anything
Yet sometimes possessive thoughts plague me
I must remind myself that we are all only humans
Trying to find our best route to happiness
This one article stated that
The hardest part of polyam relationships
Lies in the negotiation between
Your and your partners' needs
So I must always remain on guard
Because the jealousy and sadness coming from within
Was bred by the broken systems we grew up in
And redefining those is a part of my resistance
Monogamy stems from the patriarchy
And sexism lies within that
Possessiveness and jealousy are not cute
They only lead to blaming others for your own inconsistencies
And I am a mess of inconsistencies

I feel like I should write
Though I'm not quite sure what to say
It seems like I feel everything so intensely
Until I try to capture it and it's gone
Words don't seem to work well these days
I'm really not even sure how I'm doing
I feel ready to have a successful week
Yet I also feel heavily disconnected from you
Maybe I am finally accepting my feelings for another
Allowing myself to explore the potential new flame
Maybe I felt held back by your distaste towards her
I realize now that it heavily tints my interactions with her
But it's not about her
And It's not about you
It's honestly about me
And the way I've been living
I have been so consumed by
Our love and all of this polyam drama
That I'm forgetting to live as an actual human
Forgetting that I exist without you too
I know it heavily affects you and
Stresses you out far more than I
So maybe this distance is for you too
Then again, you asked me not to pull away
What else can I do though
When you're consumed by another
And I feel empty and alone too often?
These feelings have led my life far too long already
So I'm stepping up my focus
I am working more on myself again
Because if somehow things get rough
I need to have someone to fall back on
For the first time ever
I've found the healthiest opportunity
The most reliable choice I should've made sooner
And it's me
I am my own foundation
My world exists through my own perception
So in the likely event of some sort of chaos
I am finally ready to catch myself
I will be ok regardless of circumstance
And that's extremely liberating

Polyam
Polyamory is not a lifestyle it’s an ethos a consensual way that moves us to seek our desires....
Polyamory explodes the feelings of NRE, passion, affection without the constraints of the world or its norms of society.
Polyamory is love, envy, feelings, that motivates compersion, tolerance, acceptance and focus on love.
Polyam is a journey of You and I, our wants and needs to connect and walk together in love....
