stinging cheek supposed to be meek nails digging in throat supposed to take note bruises here and there thankful no tears and then hearing i love you. filthy name calling on both sides ripping and tearing not exactly in marriage guides can't understand grieving or no more trusting asks why are you leaving as heart scars are crusting and then hearing i love you just can't do this any more love does not come at the end of fists hurting not from bruises and sores just can't do this any more and then hearing i love you message sent loud and clear hurt, pain, tears, and waste nothing to gain asking why are you leaving stop this foolishness no time for grieving and then hearing i love you joanne burt (all rights reserved) 8/20/12 |

Welcome, dear Joanne, to Passions in Poetry! Your first poetic offering is very intense and it hurts, as it reflects a situation that probably too many couples can relate to. Margherita |

humm, growing pains and human interaction...i love you... one's perception is one's reality... sometimes we have to change directions and that, too, can be a problem. just finished reading 'idaho falls'...your poem takes me back...to rethink the possibilities in that book. |

this evokes Tracy Chapmans music...especially her "but you can say, i love you, i love you" song. Nicely constructed, thought provoking and intense realism...well said |

Thank you all for your very welcome comments. has been a very long time since thoughts have come to paper. Bear with please, there will be kinder, gentler writings that are of a happier nature. Sometimes scattered thoughts just come and there you have it. What a wonderful welcome from you all. |
