Patience (September '17)

i am never one to say ‘i was only kidding’

i am the type who experiences guilt

physical and mental

deservedly so

but

patience is something that i need

so please

Blunt

Your words are hollow, 
your words I swallow, 
time and time again 
even after 
action did not follow, 

I still swallowed 
and in return

my disturbing brain 

and you just left me 
standing in the rain 
carrying my pain 
so dismayed I caved 
into shame. 

The rage a blunt stain 
upon the page.

I have lied to the very people I pretend to be close too,
