For Being Brave

shivers race down my arms.

a feeling of hope, yet overwhelmed by despair

triumph immediately followed by sorrow, like always.

effort that is unmatched, that you have never seen,

yet unappreciated.

strength in my emotion. a lack of yours.

a mass of compromises. none noticed and none made by you.

I’m supposed to understand, your always right and sensible.

patience is a virtue you say, but when does it become a waste of time.

In my pain and misery, i sacrifice my pride for the sake of yours.

saying anything to not fight, always trying to make you happy.

a plethora of thoughts; pros, cons, costs, and benefits.

always acting logically but not with you. my feelings make me weak.

my attachment to people bind me in chains. hurt. pain. prolonged.

i manipulate. people. situations. and circumstances. i cannot with you.

my powers are expelled.

my attraction runs deep. physical. emotional.

i see neither with you. no kisses. none. no reassurance.

everyone feels. everyone needs. everyone wants. as i do.

i give. it drains me. you take.purging me of my energy.

i am weak now. these quarrels are unnecessary. they drain me more.

i wouldn’t have these with any other. why you? only you. when we talk,

shivers race down my arms.
