To Guess the End

Folder: 
The Rest

Kindness is not enough

I challenge myself to find why

No justifiable words can tell him

 

Perfection does not exist

But a space for ideals is a part of me

So I punish the present with judgement

 

Compromise is possible

Yet I will wall up the place for it

unable to reason it's working in reality

 

I take the best of today

Knowing that I hold

the anguish of tomorrow in my intentions

 

What right have I got to his care

When it circles my selfish centre

Supporting what it can never truely touch

 

I think I've guessed the end of this story,

but I don't want to reach the final page.

 

My pages to turn,

but I can't act upon a feeling, when the scene in which I sit is still being written.

 

I cannot pre-empt a scenario which will leave us both in such pain

May the plot twist so that I can believe in what he feels and know that feeling.

That is the only ending I cannot foretell.
