No communication

by Vikki Owens

I said to day,
for the hundreth time
'i see no understanding
in your eyes'
and yet
you challenge me in all
the things
that are so foreign and
unreal
to you.

Jayson, these things are
REAL TO ME.
Listen to me for once,
instead of using that quiet time
while Im talking
to formulate your answers....

you said I do not talk to you
do not talk or say
anything of substance to you
regarding all these issues....
open your eyes, Im screaming for you
to come save me.
I sob to you in the dead of night
and say it hurts so bad
what I do to myself...
is that not enough
for you?

Good poem and a good read Vikki. It reminds me of my first marriage. She deserved better. Thanks and keep writing.
