Food For Thought

Perhaps I'm not as good a Christian
as you would deem yourself to be
I still shake to know my safe abode
was stricken, with such sudden surety...
To hear your voice or think of you
still doesn't bring to mind
much of the past which we'd shared
before the treacherous time...

Perhaps I'm not as good a person
as I would like to believe
Was it a long time of burdens thrust on you
which made your senses leave?
If we had talked beforehand, and
lessened tensions felt
I might have understood, somewhat,
the onus that was dealt...

Perhaps I'm not as good a roommate
as others find themselves to be;
There are many issues which
which were problems caused by me?
Communication withered as we
let ourselves be caught -
Drowned in a maelstrom 'tween us;
we didn't fix, but fought...

Perhaps I'm not as fair a woman
as you may think you are
We all have our limits, dear; did
we stretch the other's far?
I came to see your opinions on me:
comments & actions of such chill!
I'm not the wretch I seem to be;
it's an empty me I seek to fill...
