What I expected
And what I got
Did not line up
I chose to stop
The hand was heavy
Expectations high
My heart was right
My patience went dry
Don’t call it a failure
Don’t call it lost time
If we both learn more of ourselves
The end becomes justified
I had more, but this just seems stupid and as I re-read it I feel like an elementary school kid wrote it. I will just say what I am thinking in sentences.
I was making it (our relationship) about me and I wanted it to be a specific way, and when it was not happening, I became extremely disgruntled (inwardly mostly). I didn't bring you in to so much. I won't say that you deserve better, because I really did try. BUT, it doesn't matter what you did or didn't deserve; what happened, happened. I want to be able to make a friendship work. I am willing to change my heart & mind in order to have a friendship that works with you. From this point on, I would like to commit to a friendship. No expectations, no pointing out flaws, just the connection between two individuals who care for each other in a way that can be embraced.

Thanks Michael. I appreciate it. And your poem isnt too shabby, plus what are you trying to say?! My poetry sounds bad too?! haha
I love your poetry! I just didn't see that poem going anywhere. But, if I ever find any free time, I will throw all my lose thoughts together and send them to you in a FINAL project sort of thingy. We'll see, which means you will see it come eventually.
