good friends leave you....

====================


Friend,

you want reassurances.

you want to be cared for.


i'm not god

i have bad days


you want comfort

you want unconditional attention

you want perfectly requited love


i'm not god

i have bad days



my phone is not always on

my chat program puts people on ignore


i'm not god

i have bad days


i will eventually tell everyone who pisses me off to fuck off

i will do it without consideration if i'm down and out


i'm not god

i have bad days



anyone reading this
stop reading



everyone else feeling and empathising



go back




to your own yelling

to your being left alone

being hermit and meditating

on your life

like the buzzing

under a mossy stone

for we are not god

and we have bad days



and



when we emerge

our

butterfly

selves

come out again

to play with the flowers

to dance in the sun

and remind

the world

that

collapsing

cocoons

have

a

place



a rich

virtuous life

all its own


in spite

of

not being
perfect

or
not being

unconditional or epic...

that we are perfectly fine

waiting in our dark

until our inner sun

rises

from the broken

shards of our mending selves

and we are dancing

flying

giggling

not alone again

for a while

for

we are not gods

and

we all

have bad days...
