Ambivalence

Ambivalence consumes me
Love and hate war within my head
Drawn and yet repulsed
I'm filled with constant dread

I yearn for his affection
Yet I don't want him near me
If I can't have his full attention
I don't want any of it.

His half-hearted attempts to please me
Only make me want him less
His unwilling touch sickens me
This much I will confess.

While he sleeps beside me
I gaze upon his face
A jumble of emotions fill me
My heart begins to race

Why do I even want him
Does anybody know?
Yet if I don't want him
Why do my tears flow?

Boring

Oh dear husband can't you see
Just how boring you can be
Sitting on your ass all day
Get the hell up!
I want to play!

All you want to do is sleep
Watch TV, make not a peep
Sitting on your ass at work
You never move
You're such a jerk!

You're in your thirties but who can tell?
I've seen more action from Mattel
I've always known you could be cold
But who'd have known
You'd act so old?

We don't fool around… your drive is latent
I've seen more life in a geriatric patient
So listen up my sad old man
Get off your ass
And make a plan

I may be sick but I'm not dead yet
I need more fun than I currently get
So heed my words my boring friend
I'll go out dancing
While you buy Depends.

The Abyss


Trapped…
In this hell of my own making
I rail at my prison walls and curse the day I fell
Fell for your lying eyes and twisted heart
How blind could I have been?

Lost…
In a maelstrom of love and pain
Wanting to be near you, Wanting to run away
Needing to find something to end this constant pain
Needing to find my way out of this dark hole

Bound…
By my love for you, my heart enthralled
By the vows I spoke in truth on that far away day
The day I locked myself into this never ending torment
The chains wrapped around my soul have at last drawn blood

Dying…
Slowly on the inside where no one can see
My life's blood seeping from invisible wounds of my own making
No aid offered from your cold heart, your indifferent touch
Cursing your name and mine, I fall into the abyss…

Hell


I'm so sick of the life I have today
Joy is fleeting, emotions sway
The love is gone and money is tight
I can no longer see the light

Each day that passes makes it worse
Why must my life be such a curse?
To keep them happy in Hell I stay
But the cost is higher every day

They care not how it makes me feel
As long as they're happy they will not yield
Like sharks they watch from all around
I sit and fade, make not a sound

My soul cries out, my shoulders bend
I only beg for the pain to end
This constant nightmare that is my cage
Has killed my fire, has killed my rage

Defeat is the only thing that's left
All hope is gone, my soul bereft
All that's here is an empty shell
Can anyone save me from this Hell?

Appearances


Keep it up let no one know
Just how often my tears flow
How much I hate this life of mine
Keep on smiling, do not whine

Make them think that all is well
Try and hide this lonely hell
Never let them see me cry
Never let them find out why

They're just waiting for things to fail
Smile outside, inside just wail
Wish upon the stars at night
Even though I've lost the fight

The only person who needs to see
Ignores my plight so selfishly
Someday I won't have to pretend
Someday this hell I'm in will end

Haunted

Try as I might I can't get free
Of this despair surrounding me
Wavering 'tween love and hate
Uselessly cursing at my fate

Can't you see how bad things are?
Each day my heart bears one more scar
Your selfishness just sickens me
Just how heartless can you be?

Caring only about yourself
Everyone else put on a shelf
Left to languish and gather dust
Filling me with such disgust

Not only for you but myself as well
For letting you lead me to this hell
For staying where I am not wanted
By memories forever haunted...

Don't Think

Don't Think (Poem)
Current mood:  depressed

Don't think that because I love you that you always have free reign

To do as you please while ignoring my needs,

causing me so much pain

Don't think that because I'm fool enough to be in love with you
That I don't know how far you go
Or what you say and do


Don't think that what I don't know won't hurt, just to get your way
The time always comes when I find out
And I'm the one who pays


Don't think that just by making love all pains will go away
It doesn't work, not anymore
My pain you cannot sway


Don't think that you have control anymore over what I will not do
You've pushed too far, I've had enough
Soon betrayal will come to you…

What Can You Do?

What Can You Do? (a poem)
Current mood:  stressed 

What can you do when your days are so dull
you work to get through the day?
What can you do when your life is so stressed
you wish you could fly away?
What can you do when each day that goes by
your life just seems to get worse?
When the more you try to fix everything
the more you feel like you're cursed?

What can you do when you know it's not you
who's failed to so much as try?
When you wake up each day and the first thing you want
is to lay your head down and cry?
What can you do when your body won't work
but you have bills to pay?
When you look all around but nothing you've found
will help you find a way?

What can you do when you feel that your soul
is just plain worn and beat?
When you sit at home and worry alone
over how your family will eat?
What can you do when it's only you
with the burden on your back?
When you hide from your kids that life's on the skids
and the future just looks black?
