If you turn your face away in anger
Because I've misunderstood your way
If you clamp your mouth in derision
Would I lose faith, not a minute stay?
The more I will try to ask please why
There are less and less of time spent
What caused this silence, this breach?
You are a most beautiful being
In your anger most beautiful still
As your face show the upturned brow
The full lips grow larger with grief
I feel your heart's fullness for me
Yes even when your fingers squish
My heart so much with scolding words...
You asked why I do not understand you
Often you had tell me just to let go
Said hours you spend are for both of us
For our future, when we need to escape
We can take the boat, go to the island
Our Secret Place, have you long forgot
How lovely the last time we visited?
My eyes are full of sand from crying
My heart is bursting with salty waters
I tried to hold your hand to stop fear
Of losing a grip on us, but you said
Do not be so emotional, we are okay
Just give me time to recover from load
Lots of phone calls, no sleep at all...
Married to work may reap success but does it matter when there is no one special to share it with? It is not that we aim for success for someone we love in life aside from self and family? Thought provoking write my friend.

This is a reminder for all of us my friend that while we are reaching for the stars, we lost those who are easily within reach and who loved us best. Stars are illusions, and like illusions, they are gone the sooner you touch them. I am glad that you also like the poem for what it teaches you. You are young and flexible - don't forget to bend and apologize if you must. Thank you for affirming.
