Untitled Poem by Shannon Monroe

I wanna cry, yet I wanna rejoice.

Everytime I see you, you're the burden that weighs upon my heart and soul.
Yet, it's lifted everytime that I am with you.

I'm so confused.

I'm so frustrated.

I'm in love, yet I fell out of love a long time ago.

Your actions say that you hate me, yet your words say that you love me.

Your actions have cut me deeply and hurt me profoundly, yet I'm stronger, so much stronger.

Can you explain it to me Terry Jay?
What's there in our relationship that I'm not seeing? That I'm missing?

What's something without nothing, yet what's nothing without something?

We used to have love. Where did that all go?

We used to call ourselves soulmates, yet we weren't.
What happened Terry Jay?

Do you love me or do you hate me?
