An oedipal prophesy~

this pain's too much to bear.
this pain's too heavy on my shoulders.

almost like i cannot breath.
almost like i cannot hear.
almost like i cannot think.

this pain is like an oedipal
prophecy.
too gruesome to tell of.

this pain makes me choke.
is it fair to even begin to love
...to try to love?

is it fair to get so caught up?

is it fair to languish in that love
and still expect that somehow...
along the ways of laughter...joy...
passion...ecstasy...
that in that expectation; still....

more pain?

in some way we have those
realistic expectations...
but whose to expect that you kill your father
and end up sleeping with your mother?

like in some oedipal prophesy-
this is how this pain feels to me.


i hope that this pain
does'nt ruin me.

i hope i can be whole again
so
i can love again.

i hope that i can believe in
what's real
and true...
and learn to trust
the way i need to.
