words ... just letting emotions run free for a while


words ... letting them free



and tomorrow
it will be ok
that is what you say

I know that it is a lie
but I smile and say you are right
nothing needs to hurt between you and me

so I pick my words
turn at corners
smiling

tears fill emptied nights
but I keep playing my part
strong and sensible

just the way you picture me to be

Irt is hard i know to hurt someone that has done no harm yet in all this one cannot deny a love found or a pathway taken that leads maybe to the love of a lifetime. The dilema is unlesscone takes it one will always regret it in the end
not having taken it of course.

True love is unavoidable though often a mess

oh Kath, your emotions are flowing like a river of tears. I identify with this so well from the years I spent pretending everything was ok when it truly wasn't. I felt a pain from the memories that your words have brought to mind. This is a powerful poem. You have the ability to profoundly translate feelings to the reader. Well done.
