My wish for you

May you never have to hide

Your story from others

I do not need you to save me,
But I do need you to hold me while I rest.

As long as you don't let the grief consume you.

Love with you was different,
but you still played me.
Like every person you claimed not to be.

I've had enough loss

In this life and the next life

That has yet to come
Jeremy Betts Mar 2024
Inside this inconspicuous figure
Is a heart and mind that conspire together
To trigger my rage heavy splendor
That works out for me never
Too clueless to share how but somehow aware
Somewhere in there is fear
Even if just a sliver
So buyer beware
Locate the snare,
It's always there
A danger that's present but not clear
I sense it when giving and losing control,
Compassion and anger
I'm uncomfortable but familiar
With those two in particular
