The Unfixable Problem

Contributed by WorthlesSanity666 on Tuesday, 23rd March 2004 @ 07:06:12 PM in AEST
Topic: SadPoetry



Swimming in pools of sorrow,
I am your broken toy.
You gave and gave,
but I broke despite your best efforts.
You do not talk to me directly,
but to someone else in the room and
discuss me.
As if I wasn’t there
and didn’t have
a say.
I try my best
to fix myself,
to not be such a problem.
I’m sorry I cause you trouble,
I’m sorry I cause you frustration.
But I am the unfixable problem.

Eventually you toss me aside,
in the pit of despair to
collect yourself.
You pick me up,
your favorite doll,
the one with all the tears.
You hug me and
attempt to fix me,
once again.
I try to cooperate,
I really do!
But your love is just
too draining.
I have no strength to fix myself.

You would fix me,
but fixing costs money,
I do not want to be more of a problem by
causing you to spend too much money.
You shove me into
someone else and say,
“Fix it!”
as if they have
a magical cure or
device.
But they can’t repair me--
I am the unfixable problem.
Stop trying to label it.
Stop trying to label me!
Your problem has a name!
Your problem has opinions!
Your problem wants to be free...

You try to ignore the fact that
my eyes are coming undone,
that my limbs need re-stitching.
So you hug me and squeeze me,
weakening the seams,
until I fall apart.
Strewn in a million pieces.
What else did you expect?!
I am your unfixable problem!

Whoa.. um where to begin.. This is very good in my opinion. I havnt read anythin yet such as this/something so seldomly seen.. You had me from the start to finish.. which is hard to capture thoughts so pure and relate them to make a whole... no missing pieces no other words needed.. you have a great mind.. but are defeating the purpose of strength.. you know your unner self.. now let it out.. unwind your being..

excellent work.. keep it up :)
