This says so much!

I wish you’d just tell me

by teradanielle

If there are things that need saying, why not just say them?

Do you think I’m going to turn away and leave you?

That’s not going to happen.

Do you think if you are angry I’m going to fall apart?

Do you think you need to protect my feelings too?

No, I just want the truth.

No need to be mean, no need to be harsh

I do have a heart, although it’s not what it once was 

Be gentle if you can

But even anger is better than nothing

Don’t you know I love you just as you are?

No need for perfection

Please no more silences, don’t leave me to guess.

Each door that slams in my face

feels like another death

If you are angry, I say “you should be”

If you’re not, that’s okay too

Is it alright that I am?  

Would you think less of me then?

 All I want is to bridge this gap

You are my family, my heart

Tell me what do you need, what can I do?

If I could I’d heal this wound

for me and for you

Thank you so much  terradanielle for sharing this with the world.
