D Words… [POEM]

We left it somewhere
never expected to leave
being apart was no option
it was supposed to be,

Denial

forever
nevermind the fools we made of ourselves
we were once happy,
together

Debating

and now sights can’t be stood
moments are more regret
every time there is presence,
there feels like death

Destruction

and I haven’t slept…

I hope you have trouble
sleeping without me
and if you do get a chance to dream,
I hope it is about me

Disaster

I hope that I haunt every thought
I wish no man ever take my place
I pray that you suffer the same sickness as my anxiety over you,
I hope that your only remedy,
is my face,

Discouraged

so I will stay away…

from whatever hurts you
and leads you to question
I’ve learned more about myself
per your suggestion

Distance

Yet, here we are…

opposite sides of this issue,
opponents
juggernauts going for blood,
unwilling to own our messes
I’m torn because of you

Distracted

you’re hurt because of what I did
no one seems to remember it honestly
and then we have these kids,
casualties and tactics
can’t go forward
because it’s backwards,
honesty

Disabled

How can you say you acted?

What do you mean you don’t believe?

How could we ever walk away from this?

What can’t I see?

Dysfunctional

You don’t mean what you said
I never meant to betray you
somewhere along the way we stumbled
what can I say to…
make this different
There is no judgement that can justify our love
or mandate my commitment

Disgusting

Why are we here?

I apologize. I’m sorry. whatever it takes, just take it away
I’ll give back everything that you don’t like about me,
I’ll change, today

Disorder

I forgive you. I understand.
whatever you need to hear, it’s okay
I am willing to accept you and I can work with us,
just don’t break

Disagree

Or say it’s over
I don’t want an end
I want us to get over
this hurdle
get better somehow,
through this turbulence…

Disruption

We deserve better
and are capable of more
counseling, mediation, therapy
prayer, fasting, changes
that’s what they are for
just don’t make me feel ignored

Disrespect

We can fix this,
by our faith
taken back by force
I just can’t take failing to finish it
and I don’t want to…

Divorce.
