Inebriated Poetics

a mind in turmoil, a heart in need

a feeling unknown, what could it be

another internet love or like

to add to the quandary of two people alike

wondering if the feelings are true,

not wanting to let it all hurt you

never met you, but think of you by the minute

wondering if love could have finally did it

separate, but close at heart

wondering when love did start

love or obsession, or just a lonely soul

trying desperately to fill the hole

left by others, who weren't right

insercurities aid the doubtful mind

they push and pull and make me find

things that are wrong, with me

self esteem is a must

but also in there is truth and trust

warring voices say this and that

you're just a fc up, and who'd want that

maybe things can work out

but maybe in the end it'll be about

the differences not seen, the things not said

silence can cut just as sure as a blade

mental disorders rear their faces

when the stakes are hearts, not traces

of mixed up emotions, and lost motives

Brilliant observation of an internet relationship.I could name ten people who would be able to say I'm right there with you brother! ( this poetess included) its very similar to when you meet someone and take it slow, you just don't know if its going to work out or not. The distance forces us to go slow so maybe that in and of itself is a good thing. I just wanted give some support, you seem to be asking yourself all the right questions so that's a good start then I should think. Whatever the out come please keep sharing. Sincerely, Melissa Lundeen.
