Poem Title:
Poem
He said, "it's like I have a condom on my heart. I don't want it to be there but it's there" He says he has been through shit in his life,in his relationships He doesn't have any hope anymore in relationships So I said to him, "we all go through shit in our lives, nobody has it perfect" He answered, " mine is worse. Due to that God has made me view relationships as just temporary" I said, "well I don't think God has done that, I think you yourself made a choice to view relationships as temporary" He didn't like my answers He was getting irritated I felt that he thought I was taking lightly his past relationship experience He says he has PTSD from it The last words I said to him before I decided to be quiet were, "God will not give you something that you can't handle" Every time he is telling about that past relationship experience, I always feel depressed At one point in our last conversation about it, I just wanted to cut him off and change the topic But I had to stop myself because I knew if I did that, he would be doing the same to me See,I have issues too He is the only person I have that I pour my heart too He knows my depressing life and stories more than anyone else He always listens, and sometimes even advices me on how to handle the issues She came to me and said, "today in our youth class, we learnt about the good Samaritan" She went ahead and told me the story, which I knew very well Then she apologised to me and gave me a warm hug I accepted her apology And soon were playing with bouncy balls Every time one of my friends sees me And I have that smile on my face, she goes "now what? You seem like you have something to tell me" She knows my life is a mess If am not fighting with someone, am either being attacked or attacking My life is like a theatrical stage full of drama I tell myself, AM A SAD LIFE Cold hugs and warm hugs, sums up my relationships
