The next town

Emotionally charged
But devoid of logic
You followed me

I conspired to use you
But couldn’t follow through
We went through so much together

I’ve grown so tired of your company
Like a contract negotiation
I express my commitment to you

I’ll leave you in the next town

Well written. I think I've been in this relationship before, on both ends.

Nice one.. a poem about relationships that are coming apart.. sometimes you have to let go.. There is a sense of incompleteness in this piece that haunts..

Not fond of the repetition of 'through' in the second stanza. The end is really nice.

[Cathy Wattam]
