loud and clear
by Janine EuladiaMy optimistic belief that...
we could last,
scares me
So pessimisim sits on the other side
to catch me
when I fall
In the end
I am always very dissapointed
I don't trust myself
Though, usually it's I who ends it, I have to
I know my limitations,
I can not accept
mental defficiencies, weaknesses
such as a bad temper or the dreaded...
innability to communicate
I cannot tolerate the dark
when one can simply open their mouth
and shed light
So far you speak loud and clear
Thank you!
Maybe this time...
