Just came up with this poem and wanted to upload it somewhere. Vaguely sums up how I feel about a situation I'm currently stuck in. Make of it what you will, and please no taking it and posting it somewhere else without giving me credit. It's very personal.
Alone in a house divided
alone as they confided
never able to utter a word
or repeat what I just heard
for fear of entering the battlefield
to lose what peace my silence would yield
The sidelines are the worst
as they continue to yell and curse
you see all the damage
yet remaining neutral is all you can manage
there are secrets and half truths
that each side would use
as feelings and emotions
cause the most commotion
in a war of pain and suffering
ME! is all they keep uttering
You sit there
silent and judging
An unwilling witness
Alone in a house divided
alone as they confided
never able to utter a word
or repeat what I just heard
for fear of entering the battlefield
to lose what peace my silence would yield
The sidelines are the worst
as they continue to yell and curse
you see all the damage
yet remaining neutral is all you can manage
there are secrets and half truths
that each side would use
as feelings and emotions
cause the most commotion
in a war of pain and suffering
ME! is all they keep uttering
You sit there
silent and judging
An unwilling witness
