PostPoems Be Artistic. Be Creative. Be Inspired!

I am not co-dependant! I am resIlIent!

I have a past I do not lIve there.

Chaos or quIet, I wIll remaIn sIlent.

If we were ever to meet agaIn,

I

hope we never do!  

I

will smile politely, as strangers might.

BUt, tonight is not then.

it has not been that long

since we woUld bend.

Since we woUld arch and dip starrily.  

Like green and yellow colors, we coUld blend.

YoUr image is as vivid as yoU are spirited in oUr pictUre.

The pictUre with yoU as yoU.  

me

in

my shirt of blUe.

With smiles from both oUr faces for the camera

and the gathered few.

We both already knew that “Y”oU woUld not remain with me.

How yoUr face is able to hide the trUth inside.  

i

can never know?    

my

face made sUre

my

blUe shirt below was concealing

my

blUe show.

i

needed YoU then.

i

am convIncIng myself I wIll never need that way agaIn.

That Is why I left that shIrt behInd.

That last nIght,

I saw you

and

you last

saw

me

Me wIthout My shIrt of blue.
