I Wonder

A Poem by Alisa Js

will I miss the shuffle of your steps

as they pass into eternity,

the smacking of lips

the icy glare of your stare

as you twist the truth

making it all about you,

I don't exist.

how sad we can’t speak the truth

without irrational repercussions,

threatening accusations

an unintended consequence.

hidden agendas finally revealed

heart stopping statement of fact

I should have known

I’ve always known,

only found it so hard to believe...

I truly like this one. This one is going to my favorites library.

There is something about this poem that made me *feel* before fully understanding. This poem sounds like it was taken straight out of a past relationship for me, and I appreciate that you were able to capture the thoughts/emotions so clearly.

This happened to me last week. It won't prevent me speaking the truth in future as I know truth is more important than friendship with lies.

Beautiful detailed descriptions that still sound like genuine and natural speech. I love that it's a question and not a weak, self-pitying voice. Really liked it.
