I scared my Roommate yesterday

By wanderingpoet

Topics: Poetry Source: AllPoetry Original source

I scared my roomate yesterday I just heard from a friend today The ferocity of the conflict The pain on my face The anger in my voice… I scared my roommate yesterday Confused and frightened Angered and saddened By actions done in innocence Yet seemingly spiteful… I scared my roommate yesterday Because I feel I am not enough I am not what you need I can’t understand so many things… I can’t be what I need to be… I terrified my roommate yesterday A man used to seeing me in joy and laughter Smiles upon my face, Eccentricities dripping from my pores Simply staring into space for no reason I think I terrified myself last night The intensity of my anger The height of my fears The shape of my heart Tattered and torn What became of us? I wonder as I sit here, Alone… Why can’t we go back? To days where we could only be with one another? I wish we could start again… Though it seems impossible now… I wish we could let go of everything between us Though it feels as if the world has gotten in the way I don’t know if I have given up I just don’t want to think about it any more tonight… Written April 5th, 2002 © on Apr 05 2002 05:50 PM PST   18 • 0 • 1
