Inside

SheWasTheSun

She loved you for your spirit

For your guts, your game

And now she won't go near it

She won't speak your name

 

You were much too real

That's why she ran

You tried to make her feel

You silly, silly man

 

You made just enough cracks

In her walls made of stone

You got her to relax

Taught her how not to be alone

 

And while she felt free as ever

As her world opened up

Her heart light as a feather

She wanted to feel stuck 

 

The openness was daunting

She had nowhere to hide

Your love was haunting

She could only go inside

 

Inside of herself, that is

Back in her abyss

Where she comfortably sits

Safe from happiness

      Thanks ANGEL for a very challenging poem. In my relationships with Females I try to let them take the lead and never ever move to fast. You are all very very precious and I would hate to think I was a "Silly Man" who pushed a Girl back ~ inside herself ! This is a beautifully written poem ~ neat quatrains with a consistent abab ~ cdcd etc rhyming pattern. Thanks for sharing ~ more please ~ BRIAN (UK)
