Talk to me, please.
I am here, cuddling with you.
Each time I'm with you, you act weird.
What's on your mind?
You don't seem to notice my presence.
I tried to be next to you.
I tried to caress you.
You ignore me; you don't react.
Why aren't you telling me what I did wrong?
I hope things can be much better between us.
Could you please make time?
for a conversation with me.
I've lived with you for years.
You have never acted this way toward me.
This is beyond my strength.
I don't know where I stand.
I can tell that there's a lot on your mind.
Talk to me; I'm ready to listen.
I miss all our good times.
I know you have something in mind.
Spell it out and free me.
If you want me to go,
I will do just that.
Talk to me.

The steps to losing a child
Step One: Lose a child. Not what anyone wants to happen and nothing you can do to change it, but you can go through steps to becoming happy again. You can go through steps to loving again. You can go through steps to become a new you because after losing a child you will never be the same person you once were.

"Could you please make time? for a conversation with me. I've lived with you for years." Really soothing lines Gloria!
It's so difficult when someone gives us the silent treatment instead of communicating properly. Loved your poem!
Very touching!
