All the things I left unsaidA Poem by E.J. Michalec
I know that being cool with anything was more than likely your favorite thing about me
When I vented to you I installed a filter but you never returned the favor Your insults were toxic fumes willfully undetected I wanted to feel the whisper of your voice without the interruption of the alarms Why didn’t I listen? And while I know you’re gone now, and I left you for the warmth I’ve been conditioned to want to suppress the fact that your presence in my life was nothing but cold, I know that it’s for the best that we no longer exist in the same atmosphere, I rose above you in the heat of the moment and expanded myself to be the bigger person in your presence but I can’t deny the fact I still think about you sometimes There’s no sound reason as to why I still feel the bitter cold nipping at my ears chilling me to my core, But I do, and I hate it. I still resent the f**k out of you. © 2018 E.J. Michalec |
