I can prefigure with
Conviction that when
You wake up to the
Empty right side of the
Bed tomorrow, you’ll
Miss me. You won’t let
It show. You knew I would
Go. You will button your
White shirt with indifference
And move to the pantry to
Snack on a granola bar.
You’ll then proceed to
Pretend to read the newspaper
When in reality, confusion
And panic is starting to set
In. You’ll wonder where I am.
You’ll rise from your chair,
With your heart in your
Throat, you’ll move to
Fetch your cell phone, go
To contacts but oh. Your
Ego, the size of a grand
Mountain will not let you
Do so. You won’t call. You’ll
Go back to reading your
Newspaper, as if nothing
Happened, as if your lover
Never existed. You’ll go on.
And I prefigure nothing more.
And I am not even waiting for
Your call, your ego and narcissism
Is an obstacle we both know of.
There was no refutation here,
I was right, you wouldn’t call.

Itís hard to find knowledgeable people within this topic, however you seem like you know what you are discussing! Thanks
I read this poem the day it was uploaded (25th) and I instantly broke. I just had to call her but then again, my monsterous ego somehow managed to stop me. Then again, the next morning when I got up, all I could think about was her. How did this happen to us? When I picked up my phone to see if she’d called, your poem flashed on my screen again. (I read your poem the other night and locked my screen and slept). However soft I may seem now, my ego is just the opposite. Or rather, it was. I was afraid of losing her. Yes I finally called her up today. Things didn’t quite turn out the way I wanted. She’s moved on now. I know it’s all my fault. But that doesn’t matter. What matters is that this poem you so thoughtfully wrote, has helped a person when he lost everything. You have a beautiful talent girl. 🙂 Keep it up.
i understand the feelings in the poem so well!! does this happen to others too?? I thought i was the only one!!
Wow. Getting comments like these makes my day. Thank you for giving my poem a chance. Haha, the complex world of love and it’s repercussions. Have a good day. 🙂
What a surprise it would be if my call you did see. You would have pinched yourself. Just to be sure it wasn’t a dream . Maybe you would not have answered because my thoughts you could not fathom anymore. But broke I have become, since u left. Chaos has ruled where once there was order. So I must change to surprise you and maybe win you back again. ( please dont mind me, 🙂 🙂 :-)I loved it ,was caught by its spirit and so I kept going. Awesome piece)
Wow. You pretty much continued my poem with ease. Wow. That good, Hun? Thank you so so much. 🙂
