fitting room

Excuse me sir

Can I have a room please?

One with enough space

to try all that I’m carrying

And maybe you too, since you know it all

With all this time – just once – wouldn’t spoil it all

Show me what you know, just tell me where

I won’t hesitate when you tell me to put it there

And how about this?

How does it look?

What does it make you feel?

Do I have you shook?

Would you do this?

If I called would you come?

To my fitting room

Let’s see what this becomes.

father

To find you did the worst thing any man could do

Abandon a child

Live a lie with so much truth

I find myself so far from you

That I cannot draw near you

as I had before

Is it love, if you didn’t love them?

As much as you loved me

Or am I fool to believe that it’s true

Real

Faithful

Honorable

Never hide, never lie

This is our painful goodbye.

I didn’t like you

Somehow I’ve told you everything

I never thought I would,

Then have the audacity to say to me

All the things I “should”

I didn’t understand your positivity

Far too afraid to ask

Hoping one day you would give to me

A moment of your past

Is that what they gave to you

Something I couldn’t

When it all started out so terribly

How could you ever really like me?

Life full of drama running from impending trauma

Too foolish to find my way out

I don’t know why I did it

Can’t see you without him

That you are the last piece of who I was before all of this

Before I was sad and hopeful,

I had a plan

Now I’m bent and broken

On healings long worn path.
