I frustrate him;
That frustrates me.
Drives my patience
to mystery.

If communication
is at a low ebb,
why not nourish it
on web with friends?

Some people
just don’t talk
or express
or let
emotions become undressed.

Others need
to hear complain
(Different than non verbal sulk.)
and know that
listening
occurs with explain.

I don’t know
how much longer
we can play
this game of
High/Low Non-verbals.

They drain.

Title drew me right in and I am pleased that it did.....Love the explanation of the title throughout.
This is a classic line...."emotions become undressed." Pure poetic line!

im a communicator myself, cant stand it when you need feedback and all you get is the sulking and ignoring....cant stand to argue at all but its quicker when the other person addresses the issue as well

i like the way you phrased this, just hit home with me today

A dialougue in silence ne'er
was wrought resolutions require
more than muted eyebrows rise
