PostPoems Be Artistic. Be Creative. Be Inspired!

You can’t really listen

To a single word I say

But understand the feeling

One minute you’re here

The next…

See, here it go again

That “when you want me” shit

Wow, I guess we have gotten to that point

Already

Anyway

Put me up on the shelf

If you must

I guess it’s okay

I knew it would happen anyway

Don’t listen to me

And my insecurities

That’ll only make you think

About things we don’t discuss

Feelings we don’t acknowledge

Just continue to love me

In your own little way

It’s not really the same

But it’s still okay
