Since I can't reach you in words

By wanderingpoet

Topics: Poetry Source: AllPoetry Original source

Since I can’t reach you my voice Using a language evolved from emotion Since I couldn’t speak to you with the wilderness between us And you raising your barriers so And simply not caring any more Thanks for being there once again Your supposedly unbreakable word violated once again Specified time come and passes Now days until it is again time to reach out You don’t feel good You are busy You are out having fun And yet you blame me for not being here for you You hang out with others Flirtations rise among poetic passions You smile and raise your eyes at another And still expect this ghost to haunt you still… You expect me to be caring When you show no slightest thought of me in your mind You expect me to hold you after a bloody day of silicon battlegrounds When you simply won’t hold me after a pained day of life You want all these things And yet you refuse to give them in return And still you expect me to be there?
