Hard To Love

Hard To Love

A Poem by Lesley Irma

I'm hard to love
I know, it's true


no disillusion
confusion


Men have tried
have cried
pounded their chest
confessed


And I


untouchable
unreachable
bleeding
weeping


scars ripped open


unable
unstable
unwilling


to move


holding tight to a lie
I know is true


fear


deception
perception


of wrong when it's right
mind grounded
heart in flight


hard to love
hard to leave
unwilling to believe

Amazing movement of words. I enjoyed the complete poem.
"hard to love
hard to leave
unwilling to believe"
The above lines are perfect. Could stand alone. Thank you for sharing the excellent poetry.
