Poem - Relation's Game
Mar. 14th, 2019 07:57 pmThe poem “Relation’s Game” is about shyness and so much more.
Relation’s Game
Nervous as the day before
the same again without pause
I wonder why this should be
stumbling when confronting this
attraction's bliss at the least
or something more I can't admit
except to say that jealousy
impacts the image I may see
relating comes with conflict
of the feelings that make me mute
wishing to draw ever near
while running away in quiet fear
in the end I'll maintain
a safe distance to comprehend
what can’t be while the angst
steals me from relation’s game.
