A Further Ten

Relationship Problems?

Easing The Pain

The glow of the sun

lessens the sting of the barbs

that you throw my way.

Blemishes

Our imperfections

mark us out as different;

individual.

29/03/19

 

Clashes

I have a temper

you have a razor sharp tongue ,

so mayhem ensues.

29/03/19

 

Imperfect Match

We may seem to clash

but we both know that we are

true companions.

29/03/19

 

Graft

One has to work hard

at any relationship

that is worth its salt.

29/03/19

 

 

 

Healing

Don't rub salt in wounds

it causes inflammation

and unneeded pain.

29/03/19

 

Malice Aforethought

Don't keep me informed;

it shows your anger and spite

and stops the healing.

29/03/19

 

Passive Aggression

Your anger and spite,

not as vocal as my own,

is just as harmful.

29/03/19

 

Two Sides

Denial of guilt

does not necessarily

prove your innocence.

29/03/19

 

The Constructive Path

Focus on the good;

look for the positive things

that you both value.

There are a bunch here I like. Blemishes - is very true. We are each unique in our own way. Those blemishes are often on the inside too. Not just the outside.

The Constructive Path - Very true, advisable

Two sides - True.

Healing - true

Graft - also very true.

A good ten to me. :)

Thank you so much Relic. I find these get such a lot off of one's chest at times lol!

wow, yes, Graft---
one of my exes expressed the opposite one night when we were talking about our relationship status...she said " i don't think relationships are something that should have to be worked at..."
knew we were in trouble when that line came out.
a sound, unsound to hear.

Ha yes I guess. I so envy those who seem to simply glide along like swans! Thanks Jacob.
