Poem 61-Together or apart

Together or apart


I thought we had made some progress
When you bared your soul to me
Something had changed
It was easier, kinder, nicer
For a while
And now you have reverted
To type, the reason I chose you in the first
Place, your serious,
Socially awkward,
Sensitive nature, and my
Response to your continued
Self remains
Upset by the actualities
Confused at how affected
Yet unaffected you are
By our encounter

I wait in anger, hope and fear
That it will evolve in to
Something better than it was
Even before we made the mistake of trying to be
Happy

Together or apart
