Poetry: Contemplation

by Coral Roberts

Created on: April 22, 2009   Last Updated: April 28, 2011

I am not your emotional stuffed animal.

Stop crying on my shoulder and look in my eyes. I am looking for the truth and I am tired of the lies.

Time is of the essence no more waiting to find out where I stand. This is important to me I need to understand.

I am not one of those women who would rather not know, accept your ambulance, or understand and tell myself you love me, but that’s how it goes.

I am not your friend that you can  tuck away like your favorite shirt in the corner of your dresser drawer only to be brought out when you need  more.

What ever made you think I was your security blanket or emotional stuffed animal that you can hang on to make you feel better when nothing else can?

.So stand on your feet. Take control of your own life. Your not a little boy you are a man!

I am not going to be your second choice, your also ran, or feel like I am not good enough to be in your day to day life or claim you as my man.

If your choice is not to change the way you treat me, and how you act,  that would be a shame but I will walk away  without regrets. then  wake the next day and start my life over again. and never look back.

If it means saying goodbye that will be ok but I am telling you now we are coming to terms about all this today.
