My Modern Relationship

My Modern Relationship

A Poem by Arly Parent
"

This is really about bad relationships that people keep going back to (Yup. Preposition as an ending. Serious about this.) It's a work in progress

"
The little sliver of cold
that slips under the comforter
to invade my warmth...is infinitely annoying.
And yet, somehow, this dalliance with discomfort piques my curiosity.
And I dwell upon it--the way it felt, the places it touched, the time it took .

And I realize that maybe it Wasn't as bad as I remember. I remember the good times--the sweet surprises.

I think about it.
And I can't remember why I snapped the covers down so quickly,
cut away that interaction with so much vehemence(strength?)

I know in the back of my mind that I shouldn't but...
Others just don't understand
the good parts
the familiarity...

And then I let it in agai--
AHHHH!
*snap*

I HATE this!
WHY does this keep happening?!

There's nothing about me. I play with pauses as well as silence. I write words, assign meanings and junk, and play with a language that might be as much my own as another. I don't know. more..
