I saw the tears you never cried,
The love you never showed.

I felt the cringe, within your eyes,
A black and dulling glow.

You work, it is the life you live,
Ethical and respected.

I hear the words you never say,
Though they’re still expected.

The hugs you’ve never given me
Are felt in just my mind.

No temper, you’re an engineer,
Your type is hard to find.

You push me to do better,
I need to work, of course.

You see my tears and still look past,
Continuing your force.

Above all else, ignore my pain,
I’ll watch you work, to earn respect.

(Relationships are what bring gain).
I’m in no place to fix your steps.



- And so it was that time stood still -

Pat,
And you've mentioned that how many times!? lol ..Though I wouldn't be so sure there's some talent.. just too much in life and too much writing; it means somethings gotta come out.
I do very much thank you for all your kind words

Always, Alyssa
