We Need To Talk

We Need To Talk

A Poem by COLLYMORE
"

Many a worthwhile relationship perishes unnecessarily because of a lack of communication on the part of one or both partners involved.

"

By Stanley Collymore

 

I don’t want to forcibly change you or coerce

you into doing anything that you don’t want to,

as that won’t solve the problems that persist

between us. I just want you to recognize

that our problems do exist, that they’re

real and not some surreal figment of my

imagination; and in doing so, hopefully as

well, persuade you to acknowledge that our

relationship is going nowhere and in all likelihood

will unfortunately disappear never to restart, and

with all the possible dire consequences for us

were that regrettable situation to happen,

without a thoughtful evaluation of

our position, or where we’re

truly heading on your part.
