picking up the pieces

sarcastic jabs and quippy lines

I hope you know I usually don't mean it

and I know my best is not enough

but that's what being human is all about

I don't have to worry about perfection

I will overcome compulsions

and when I am set back, 

maybe I could try reaching out to the autumn sunset

and ask her for guidance.

    I feel like I'm imposing

    Which isn't fair for you to do,

    It's not fair that you make me feel like I'm on the outside

    I hate sitting here, trying to reignite what once was

    I thought we we're doing this anymore

  • unkept (wo)man

    subjugated to solitude eternal,

    only perceiving and watching love,

    maybe receiving it but never understanding it

    never internalizing it

    it bounces off. Doesn't stick,

    unkept and unruly and unclean.
