without joy or passion
you create this
tall, sullen, melancholic man
to stand between us
Words don’t reach you
as if a void exists
instead of this monster
you’ve created for
your own
pitiful
indulgence
Does your helmet deflect
my words as well?
Do you need armour
to approach me?
So be it
I walk away
and leave you
alone
with your
abject
miseries

Wow! A powerful warning to the unfeeling persona.
ReplyDeleteI agree with Kerry...This is a sharp warning!
ReplyDeleteThe imagery is so strong here, Linda!💘 I love; "Do you need armour to approach me?"
ReplyDeleteThree cheers for this narrator and her decision!
ReplyDeleteWhat would it take to penetrate that armour, I wonder? Is it worth finding out? No, it’s better to walk away.
