Cannot Comprehend Poem by RoseAnn V. Shawiak

Cannot Comprehend



Fighting back tears as you yell and holler for no reason seen,
sounding illogically, separating what was learned from you to
this strange abuse.

Not understanding the harsh and meanness of your voice, feel-
ing like you're physically attacking my dear, when did you get
the idea that you were allowed to treat me so cruelly?

Why my love, have you turned against me, for all these years
I've been here for you through thick and thin, willing to give
my life for yours.

Now suddenly being torn to pieces by an angry tirade, it just
cannot be understood nor comprehended, this sudden hatred now
trashing my love to make an unimportant point and disregarding
my feelings altogether.
