Kimberly Lindsey Poems

You push and you push,
Until you make me sick.
I can’t do this anymore,
My health is deteriorating quick.
...

Don't tell me that you love me,
Don't tell me it's not over.
Don't tell me you will never let me go,
Don't tell me.... No, don’t tell me.
...

What is it about you, that makes me want to run?
There is a smell about you, there is something you’ve done.
I can’t put my finger on it, but still, I know it’s true,
I feel it in my gut, I know it in my soul.
...

I once thought I was a Princess,
Because you treated me like that.
I once thought you were my knight,
Your code of honor was exact.
...

When you look at other women, it’s okay if it’s a glance.
But if you stare them down, as they walk away,
That is rude and not by chance.
...

I thought I knew where I was headed,
Thought I knew what I was about,
I was confident and purposeful,
Then I found out…..
...

I see us at Christmas next year,
With our home all a-glow.
The tree in front of the window,
Lit with a thousand tiny lights.
...

Understanding, does not necessitate,
Making reality, less bitter.
Though it can be sweet, ‘tis most times,
Palatable at best.
...

When in the midst of a depressive episode,
The mind can not make sense of anything at all.
When the mind can not tell whether one is up
And the other is down, it is truly bizarre.
