I Stand Here In Silence

I stand here in silence and think of you. Little notions of fairytales resound in my mind as if we were somehow meant to be. And as I seek all that I thought I sought, as I think all that I thought I thought I realize that I will never be good enough… for you. It can be lonely at the top- Where all I am in a woman in need of an embrace; a solitary touch of kindness. But I am too weak to seek- and I am too low to let go. So I stand here in silence and think of me. Remember my acrimony and will to always be right even when I know I am erroneous. But I am too pliant to be compliant- and I am too unstable to be able. When all is said and done, I shall be the only one in mankind to be forsaken and abandoned because of my vulnerability. I Stand Here Contest Craig Cornish October 14, 2018
