where the wild flowers grow

words you've said
grow upon me like
seasonal plants that
you bring inside
when it's cold...

when you speak the truth
i feel more or less
like a weakness to
myself
and everyone else.

there are times
when i could explain
how much i loved you,
ways you have said
particular things
that somehow melted me...

but moreso,
you have stolen my
intricate mind,
my strict puzzle
pieces and
i hate your

inferior smile you
make me sick..

you can't undo
what you
have already
made excuses for...

there are times when
i am too honest..
but i miss you merely because
i need someone else.

I am drawn in by these inner reflections ....

    to make those pieces of the puzzle fit.
      to have someone to hold true ....



    sending both you and Helen little reminder hugs,
         for you are both SOMEONE special.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Reminds me of a song....

"With excuses like baby that was a long, long time ago,
but a short time's a long time when your mind just won't let go"

Enjoyed your painfully honest thoughts here, Kaoru~

I know this feeling well with the grandkids Meg:
ways you have said
particular things
that somehow melted me...
and you sure got the feeling right  

It is so hard to fill a void with second best isn't it?  Good and honest writing.

Love the new pic too

Very powerful piece Kaoru. You put me in your shoes and they are a mite uncomfortable. I love and appreciate the honesty you display. You delivered the last line like a left hook. I think moreso better get his act together. :-)
