Silhouettes..........A Roggys MIC #35












You know something, you didn't fail me....

I failed you

I couldn't hug you enough,
love you enough,
be with you enough,
and show you the real stuff,
enough to make you stay.
Maybe I didn't show you enough real love
inside all I tried to convey.
Maybe I spent too much time trying to be an oracle
and drying your tears away.
I shoulda realized you just needed a friend
to listen to how you spent your day

Maybe...just maybe
I didn't show you that I came not to visit
but....to stay

My un-modern mind is in complete disarray
As rainbows are promised to burst out after a storm
 trapping all the colors of life
in silhouettes of implied loveliness.....
they remind me of me
in a more apocalyptic solitude,
always trying to save the world....and forgetting
that the importance of being made to feel beautiful
lies inside

as well as outside

    wonderful.....!
    must be an inborn trait....women thinking they have to save the world......setting aside necessary self needs.

    thanks for dropping by
