It’s good you came
I was about to lose my sense
Of interpersonal identification
You are only as lucky
As the people around you
Well so they came to see me
And I had gifts for them
And they used me all too altruistically
But I cannot get furious
At those I loved, and maybe I wish
For friendship too easily
It’s good you came
I was about to lose hope in humanity
Secluding myself with cats
And my memories of emotional intensity
You are only as lovable
As the one special person says you are
Well so I came to see you
Whispering the cherished lines:
I’m sorry, forgive me, thank you, I love you
It’s about time you let somebody like me
Into your life, I’ll watch you in the kitchen
For a lifetime and come running
Into your arms, it’s never too late
It’s good you invited me
Thank you for having me
You are the first person in a long while
Who knew how to make me feel special
I want to be significant again
And I’ll give you my everything
Flowers, poems, chocolate, my heart.
Beautiful. I sound like a broken record.
Such a beautiful poem and sentiment. I particularly liked the stanza about secluding yourself with cats — wonderful!
haha yes! Props to the cats! Can’t live without them…
wow, engaging!
loved the line: ‘I was about to lose my sense
Of interpersonal identification’
and ‘And they used me all too altruistically’.
You write with such emotion, powerful poem, pal, well done! Best wishes, Baldy 🙂
I am becoming a fan of your poetry…Direct and mature observations..I enjoy them very much.
