Anxiety in a Relationship
When you sit in anxious silence, waiting to know the outcome of your fate, and you write to cure the heartache.
He welcomes me sat around in anxiety
Whilst he relaxes and frees his mind from its cage
He creates questions and uncertainty
Quietened down by bubbling rage
Intensity is his criticism
A way to silence my screaming mind
Gut clenching in its honesty
Vulnerability never hard to find
Hushing away any questions
Like right now is not the time
Picking up the scraps of him
That others have left behind
Feel him here in body but never fully
Never engaged with now
Not ever really present and immersed
Ever wondering why and how
He doesn’t feel the edge come close
Doesn’t think it will ever show
Doesn’t realise how close we have come
Thinks he is ever in the know
Can’t live in the limbo
Can’t live without it in peace
Continuing to break so slowly
Wondering will this ever cease
