Tug-O’-War Door

 

I open up more to find that you closed the door

Brick walled with mortar, steel casing, barbed wired fencing and hovering Stealth Bombers at the ready

For my heart throbs in a state of shock at attempts never recognized

The past represent spies

Deceit, ME hating vulnerability, the cover up. . .lies

Change is just ignored

Sometimes. . .feels like most of the time

It is like closing your eyes and trying to drive. . .love

Yes, blind, crippled and crazy

Like returning home from war to be a part of another

I awake to nightmares of climbing the mountain of forgiveness with you

All because I am faced with the avalanche of trust-building produced by our screams

Fold me but let me guide myself because you are afraid

Retract and feelings go into hibernation

Obliterated emotions

Catatonic as to what to do or say I am the one left to

 

Open another door without a key to home

Therefore I drive

In front of me is the car that might be saving me

because sometimes. . .feels like most of the time

100 MPH is not fast enough

50 in a 35 is the speed of light in my life

Open is the engine and exhaust

Fatigue brings awareness and warning signs of slowing down

It is ignored because my attempt is to wear a crown for you

Be a king for you but, “heavy is the head that. . . .”

Blares the music

808’s and Heartbreak

Callouses are the signs of hard work in this thing

My mind speaks to me in ways that is cell splitting

As I focus on every turn in the road

The forks and pray that I choose the right way which is not hard at all

However my opening up is causing all of this to crumble and fall

 

Apart like individual pieces to the puzzle

Why can’t WE put this back together

Currently it is Me who holds the jigsaw when the table only had three legs to begin with

I wrack my brain for the missing piece which is you

Concealing it behind the door

Holding it in for you are afraid

I will stick my foot jammed in, reaching my hand in

Praying that you don’t slam it in. . .the door

Our sobs are heard, tears enough to swim in

For this is a beginning and I hope not an end

But when you express your distress it sounds like disinterest

Anymore

The door just slams shut and echoes in my mind like a yodel

I don’t want to get used to this although it becomes melodic because you are still there

With your hand on the knob I call to my higher power that you just one time. . .open the door

For my heart beats aloud tune for you that can be seen through my chest

Brick walled with trust, encased with hope, white picked fenced with hovering helium filled balloons with Sharpie written poems at the ready.
