Unable to Hug

Contributed by gmcse8 on Friday, 14th November 2008 @ 03:13:38 PM in AEST
Topic: toughstuff

She asked for hugs the other day,
but all the reasons to hug have flown away.
I avoid her when I can so not to her appear cold,
for emotions once held in my heart I no longer hold

An explosion started the love to abrade,
afterward I saw caring too had begun to fade.
Into my heart, into my soul, I in desperation seek,
a landscape that was love, but now is bleak.

I know I should tell her how she appears,
and me thinking all has been a lie this year.
I want to believe what she has to say,
but my trust in her has gone away.

Made up my mind, as she speaks I won't think of disimilation,
I will accept her at her word, make an accomidation.
I can do this, I know I can, I will give her my trust,
for she is worth it, and do it I must.

Another weary fight to make something of this,
a rusty old knight, just wanting peace and bliss.
I know she is worth it, so I will make one more start,
for the daughter not of my blood, but of my heart.

the last two lines of this poem are true poetry, as you would say.
they are the ones that struck me most.
