ALONE
I avert my eyes from
looking at you
shedding your tears
that meld with the rain
and hit the ground
I do not cry
There is nothing
you can say
to make this right
leave me to my
musing
I am alone, but I am
strong, just not today
or at this moment
my universe will heal
being without you
shall not let me
linger in this pain
I experience now
I don’t require
your penitence
I need to sit
gather thoughts
to toughen
to block
further weathering
to my heart
trust me
I’m a survivor
no need
to complicate it
any more with
your words
stop saying
you are sorry
I ask you
be silent
like the walls
Stupidity
on my part
assuming we
could be
more than
friends
We can’t
you said
so life goes on
don’t stay
and beg
forgiveness
I won’t remain
anchored
as the monument
I will move on
without you

Ramblings From A Mum 
I could feel the heartbreak in this. Very good
Thank you Bo 🙂
I can identify with this.. It’s very touching and you can truly feel the sadness..x

Lovely piece. Very visual. Great job.
Thank you Jenn for your thoughts and for taking the time to visit me. 🙂
sits down beside you very quietly, just to be there.
and that is all sometimes is needed, reaches out quietly and holds your hand xx
I had to try so hard to not cry out loud. This touched my heart deeply! Turning the P.C off now.
Hugs Mumsy! xxxxxxxxxxoooooo
*Hugssss* baby xxoo
*speechless*
(wondering what to write)
Nope. Still speechless. 🙂
Sania – this a great compliment, I thank you xx
Delicate and deft work. I can feel the rising resistance and anger behind the pain as she continues to rebuff the apologies and “comforting” words. A shrewd exposure of the human heart — well done!!!
Angela – thank you, though I write many a tale, sometimes I don’t actually ‘think’ about how it is written or how others will perceive it, your explanation brought that home to me – thank you so much x
Powerful and moving. ‘stop saying you are sorry. I ask you be silent like the walls’ – this stanza really jumped out for me.
Sarah – thank you so very much, getting into character helps the writing process and I feel we have ‘all’ been there.
