my mother asks if we
still get along well
and i tell her we never argue,
we disagree but it is all part of a discussion
never a fight
and she says you are passive
and i tell her how your ex reached out to you
again
and how she regretted things and
i say these things without worry,
without irony slapping me
and i am not afraid of losing you,
i am only afraid of burying
me.
10/18/2011 Author's Note: because i have the tendency
to ruin it all,
to bury myself deep within
and not discuss things,
not tell you of my emotions,
of my misguided thoughts
but i will not allow that
with you.
