HAVE YOU EVER REALLY THOUGHT ABOUT HOW INEFFECTIVE YOU WERE?
I HAVE, SINCE YOU’VE LEFT ME I CAN’T HELP BUT TRY AND COMPARE TO HER
YOU ALWAYS SAID MY INCOMPETENCE INCONVENIENCED WHO YOU ARE
TROUBLE IS I NEVER FELT SO INADEQUATE UNTIL YOU CAME ALONG AND SAT NEXT TO ME AT THE BAR
SO WHY DID YOU BOTHER TO CREATE THIS RELATIONSHIP ONLY TO HAVE IT FOILED
IF YOU THOUGHT I WAS A WASTE OF TIME WITH TOO MUCH BAGGAGE AND WAS APPARENTLY SPOILED?
MY WORTHLESS SELF THAT I WHOLE HEARTEDLY GAVE TO THEE
MEANT NOTHING IN YOUR EYES THAT YOU COULD JUST SWAT ME LIKE A FLEA
IT’S FUTILE TO EVEN TRY TO GET YOU TO UNDERSTAND
WHEN WHAT I GET BACK IS A SLASHING REPRIMAND
WARNING! HERE COMES THE PATHETIC LITTLE ME
DESIRING ONLY FOR YOUR ATTENTION OF MY QUALITIES TO SEE
I AM OF NO USE TO YOU ANYMORE AS YOU HAVE SOLEMNLY STATED
SEEMS EVEN TOO FUTILE TO HAVE AN ADEQUATE REBUTTAL DEBATED
YES YOU SEE ME AS A PIECE OF RUBBISH AND TREAT ME AS SUCH
TOO INEPT TO FIGHT BACK BECAUSE I MUST LOVE YOU SO MUCH
OKAY SO I KNOW I’M HOPELESS AND INEFFECTIVE
BUT REALIZE THAT I WAS ONCE HELPFUL TO YOU AS SUCH SUBJECTIVE
MY BEING IS EMPTY WITH NO MORE DESIRE
JUST BARELY LIVING MERELY CRAVING TO LET GO AND RETIRE
INTENDING TO MAKE A PEACE OFFERING REALIZING THAT IT’S USELESS
HOW CAN I WITH ALL I RECOGNIZE OF YOU IS PLENTY OF ABUSES!
WASTED TIME OF USELESS CONVERSATIONS SHOULD HAVE TRUSTED MY OWN INSTINCTS AND OBSERVATIONS
very personal and introspective writing. Sometimes, a bit dark. To me, it seems a former relationship is the inspiration for a lot of the work. I feel I know you a lot better through your poems. You have given us the opportunity to see beyond the public face. I admire you for opening up and allowing us to see such a personal and private side of you. I hope you decide to carry on writing, and being such an inspiration through your many talents.

Got my neck, Got my boobies
Got my heart, Got my soul
Got my back, I got my sex
I got my arms, got my hands, got my fingers,
got my legs, got my feet, got my toes,

I've got life
and nobody's gonna take it away
I've got life!
Love from Montreal ...

I really connected with this one as saw myself and how I felt during and after a former relationship. I look back fondly on that experience as it lead me to a strength that I discovered deep within myself. My former weakness was foiled after I was tested, poked and prodded in my most sensitive and vulnerable places. I needed that and I am a better, healthier man today because of it. It took a temporary defeat to find my victory.
