I had to go home, alien in such familiarity,
as all was memories of you.
Don't you care enough to answer?
You're in your own world, i've got to decide,
If there's enough room for me.
I can't live in a life commanded by you.
Sipping every last word, still you make no effort.
Laugh at how i love you no less, because i do.
Devotion's a funny thing, yet i'm so serious.
Increasingly angry, don't make the mistakes that she made.
I would run to you, at the knowing you were home.
You don't stir, in your selfish sleep.

learning each day, for you and i, our paths have met, i've already learnt that you are love.

Good soft gentle venting. Some people are so self-absorbed they don't even feel your presence, don't even know you're suffering from neglect. Pour a glass of icewater over his precious head, preferably while he is still in bed. Maybe he will wake up.

Gemjop,

Never mess with a hiberating bear!

You'll get no nourishment from him, rather you'll be his next meal...

Hugs, Pat
