I'm Reaching Out, But I Feel DisconnectedA Poem by Nicole Renee
Unless! Helpless! It is me at fault?
No, it’s not, but I have no solution
And I have nothing else that I can say.
My words have no song, yet they have emotion.
They can listen. They can read. They can try to help.
But I can’t repair what’s been instilled, and stitch up
The hole that’s already been made. I’m not a motivator,
Or a speaker; they bring a piece of mind to everyone.
I sometimes wish I could be, or I’d have everybody
Turning on their ears to my native tongue,
Watching them create a new bridge and
Maybe try to repair a few of the broken ones that
Look like they have been left behind.
But as I said before. I’m not a motivator
And I can’t make people see my words.
But I can be an observer, a listener, a friend.
Happiness is what settles my nerves.
But I feel like the villain in the hero’s story,
Even if I’m tending the garden and growing the flowers.
I just care about your happiness,
And I care about what happens in the future.
I just hope that the flower will talk to the bee
Before being stung by the stinger.
