PostPoems Be Artistic. Be Creative. Be Inspired!

( A )



to be asked of these things,

to see right through you

and do nothing.

i don't think you know of

what that does to me,

but then again,

it's not as if you're asking anything

more so telling,

why can't you just accept something?

you said,

and i was just expected.

you've shown me my place

and silenced my voice to object,

check and mate.

swallowing my pride

feels like a knife in the throat

my ego goes down slow, a bitter pill

the truth of it all.



( B )



call me stupid for assuming.

i wasn't doing

anything other than

stating the obvious,

you on the other hand

continue to surpirse me

and despite the desensitizing

lessons i've learned about

once bitten, twice burned

the truth still hurts.

we no longer exist,

we're over.
