Distaste

03/10/12

 

There's so much I want to say,

But it's hard with my hands bound at my feet.

Just another day you've had you're way.

I hope you are happy.

To paraphrase from Seven Mary Three:

If I knew the answers, I'd not keep them from you.

But you obviously don't want to know,

Because I tell you, and yet you refruse to understand,

No matter how I express and explain.

The mosquito hawks outside

Dance in circles of love.

They are flightly, but even

Insects and birds have destinations.

You said you hoped for someone

Aggressive,

Not so.

You want to dominate a ride

On a reignless horse.

This I cannot abide, comprehend,

Nor stand.

I've not even time for my strings or my pen

For having to constantly deliberate with you,

While a part of me hates and is growing to resent you

For your accusations

That I don't care

And your blinders that keep you from seeing how I do.

What is it I've left out from the recipe

Which might help you favor the taste?

Perhaps I should just replace it with silence.

I wish you could know how this feels.

sounds like this has run its course, but oh my god, with what observations is it recorded. To paraphrase from Seven Mary Three was the first line I was made up with. The mosquito hawks outside. Dance in circles of love...Gorgeous. I've not even time for my strings or pen...you never fail to inspire me. Your writing is something very very special. Thankyou.

This smells familiar. I have been there..yep. Know the "distaste". Loved your expression :) good job!

So sad.
I think for a relationship to work one of the person involved should accept to lower herself/himself.

when one takes and takes from us until that which we love we no longer pursue. A terrible place to be in. Mel, this is fantastic.
