Sometime we are strangers
To ourselves
We can’t explain the guilt
We feel
The guilt of looking friends and family
In the face
Afraid to see
The innocence in their eyes
Eyes that reveal
The owner’s oblivion
Of how we really feel about them.
We avoid their eyes
For we fear they would melt the cold wall
We have raised up
Against them.
By accident
We catch a glimpse of their eyes, Our hearts melt
The frost trickles down from our eyes
To our cheeks
We can’t believe
We are pining for eyes
We once couldn’t stand.
How do we love and hate at the same time?
How do we forgive?
Then punish ourselves for forgiving
Who are you? Who am I?
Are we Dr jekyll and Mr hyde?

Beautiful piece. Emotions we fell almost everyday in our interactions with other people . It’s funny how we can be our own judge.

As in eh, we are complex begins. We don’t even understand our reactions to situations at times.

I have too many other halves to count, Gemini by sun sign and Pisces by moon sign, I can love hate, appreciate and condemn the same person all in the same moment…and the guilt stays with me deep within.

We are complex, I tell you. Sometimes we don’t even know what we want.
