In an upside-down garden

You don't want me to cry,
you make me laugh,
and try to help,
but by not telling me
what's in your heart,
you're hurting me.

You don't want me to leave,
you grab my arm,
and make me stay,
but by not saying
what I need to hear,
you're hurting me.

You don't want me to love,
anyone else but you,
and you get mad,
but you don't say anything like
what you need to say and
you're hurting me.

You plus me would work,
you know it in your heart,
and you wish for it to happen,
but you don't do anything to help,
what you want to happen,
and though you don't mean to,
you're hurting me.

I know you're in a better place and though I cannot see your face, I know you're smiling down on me, saying everything's okay. ~R Kelly (I wish)

Very nice Allysa.  I hope every thing goes better, I know this one all too well and it sucks. Good luck.

thanks jon.  I can't think of much to say, but thanks. It does suck.

this is a hard situation to be in, you know you have me to talk to if you need to    i must say though that tough situations often create wonderful poetry, which is certainly the case here.  keep posting all your work.

Sometimes, the things that go unsaid are the only things worth hearing.

Wow. Very good poem.  I could relate to it all too well.  Well expressed, and it's going to my library.  Keep writing!

Allysa, don't commit too much right now cause you're moving.  It might hurt more later.  Hope things do work out. ~*hugs*~
