Lovespiration

She Silently Reminded herself

A wedge to separate
Her goals had been that
blatant and obvious
the dysfunction of newness
can have those seeking 
something or someone
in a better position to gain 
either the  trust or possession
of the heart of someone 
worthy of having.
Unrealistic Expectations believing
friends and folk in general would
magically change their behavior
 to support you will someone
or have the decency to tell you
she's cheating
not playing some word game
but to just say it in plain
bone chilling words
 Waiting for them to share
is how they usually start
unraveling and causing
the discomfort of putting you
in your place.A clinker or a clam is
what musicians call it when you strike
 the wrong note darning a performance.
maybe she choose the wrong man might 
the right one would find her.
Or she is overwhelmed by attention and
using her general knowledge of people
she thinks that she can keep things stable long enough
to make it through.
