You

YOU

Your 
Uncaring eyes
Push me 
Repulsively 
Praise me down 
In a pit of abysmal. 
Your balance ego 
Keeps me on the void
Painted walls
Hidden truth

Take heed
While I, 
Twitch
Bitter 
Words 
Of yuck
Behind your back.

My friend Skat, hopefully this situation has run its course. Just remember, that sometimes we pick our grapes too soon and end up with bad wine. "Their will be no wine before it's time." True love will find you. Always Ken
