Weathering the Storm....

Weathering the Storm....

A Poem by Onlyme

Sometimes you have to go to be stronger
for someone who is broken
even if you are broken yourself
and just want to run away
from it all.

Like for example,
my man is not
exactly
having a great time
what with Cancer
and then his mother dying a
short time back.
So as you can imagine his
 the mood is far from perfect
up and down.
up and down
like a boat in choppy waters

A few times.
I have been on the verge
of leaving him
like yesterday for example
Ending up
I left 3 times.
Walked out of the house.
Thinking I would not return.
But did. Each time.
Home.


And 3rd time
I went to his brother's house.
And via his brothers help.
Today seemed better
and a bit more positive.
I guess what I am saying is.
Sometimes weathering the storm
is worth it.
Rather than just
jumping overboard.

Don't get me wrong
he is far from perfect
He is fucked up
like the rest of us humans
and myself
But working on
what you do have
even in bad times
I guess is worth it.

As anyone can just
walk out the door
and be gone for good...
