Do you really mean it?

Just a poem I wrote

 

Do you really mean it?

When you say its ok

When you say its all fine

 

Are you telling the truth?

Will we be whole again?

Will we be together?

 

When you say it

Do you know?

Or are you just assuring me?

 

Please don’t lie

Please don’t say these things

Mean what you say

 

Tell me the truth

I know it will hurt

But I need the truth!

 

So when you say its ok

When you say its fine

Do you really mean it?

When I read this I thought that it came right from my brain! That's not a compliment for me but a compliment for you! This completely hit home and it was presented in such a clear and simple manner, yet the way you wrote it was anything but simple. Honest and to the point... creative and tugs on the heart strings. The best part is that it can be read and viewed from so many different perspectives. Initially, most people might think of a boyfriend or girlfriend, but it could be anyone.. it could even be someone speaking to themself. Thank you for sharing :)

I had an image of someone, say an officer of the law asking unanswered questions.
Nice work

I often wonder that myself...so many out there that say what they do not mean and mean what they do not say!!

This is amazing... I wish we knew what someone was thinking when this happens, but it's hard to tell and you've nailed that longing to know the truth and except even what the truth is. Great Write!!

I have said these very same things.. this is one of the ageless truths of life.. because truth really is ageless.. and we really can handle the truth.. nicely done..
