Ode to the Gourd Man
Here are three poems I wrote Monday morning @ 1:00 ish.
Long ago I met a man given to unimaginable acts of kindness The unconditional love that poured out from within
Marked my life and caused my heart to sing
That was then
Now when meeting up with that man
There are only words of bitterness and angst
Causing my heart to cower and lie hidden within
So sad this
In front of me you stand
With a blink of an eye you are gone again
Only to return in six months time
As if we had never been apart
How easily you come and go
What is this game of yours
What is your need
What do you prove
Another six months
My phone does sing
Caller ID shows it's you
I dare not answer
Eventually...maybe six months from now
I'll be brave enough to return your call
You reached out and touched my heart with loving kindness
In return I do the same
But you want none of it
You push me away with your callous silence
I am taking my heart elsewhere
