PostPoems Be Artistic. Be Creative. Be Inspired!

Nervous as a rabbit, pain is my trade,

i left you because i was afraid,

even if you didn't once say,

i still felt so much in your way,

frightened like a bird, sudden sounds send me flying,

words keep me trying, doubt start its dying,

i let you down, sorry i wasn't more,

then a phoney smile hiding frowns behind the door,

worried like a doomsday prepper, it might hurt if

one day i found out all this prepping wasn't really worth it,

never a sound or text after my planned departure,

i was in the way, sorry if i hurt ya,

determined like a salmon going up a stream, a bear ate,

all this work just to simply procreate?

i let you down, now my tail is between my legs,

forever you'll limp me till i'm using one peg.
