Array ( [sid] => 22420 [catid] => 1 [aid] => Mick [title] => Unresolved [time] => 2003-08-28 03:45:00 [hometext] => [bodytext] => You stand just to my left
Your blue eyes hidden
Sullen mouth – stubborn
You want your own way
And I want mine
We are at impasse
The chairs are empty
Around the kitchen table
Paint dries on the edges
Where we argued
Into the night
Over nothing important
Nothing of value
Our hearts strained
Before the coffee is done brewing
While daylight comes rushing back around us
You are dressed and barefoot
Reading the newspaper
The sun washing over you
Making you impossibly handsome
Hard to ignore
While I feel withered and still sleepy
Wanting to lean against you
Comfort me – love me
I love the smell of you
You poor me a cup of coffee
An act of contrition – no
Just a courtesy call
But the argument is over
You will give in this time
Grim faced and not happy about it
It is duly noted that next time
I will capitulate – and you will have your way
This is how we hobble along
In daylight and darkness

Unresolved

Poetry is much like a great photo, a single "moment in time" capturing many feelings and emotions. Yet, they are very alive; creating stirrings within the readers who form visual "pictures" of the expressed emotions within the Poem. Â©
