Issued Warnings

2 different poems Issues and Warning

Issues

         It’s a walking disaster trying to get to know me.
I don’t make it easy with my collected issues.
         It’s a field mine that you’re walking into.
Are you still willing to try, or will you give up?
         Are you willing to realize just how useless it is trying to love me?
I’ve got too many issues to work through.
         Can you handle that, or not?
Fighting alongside or against my treacherous mind.
         All my issues fighting a war that may involve you as their enemy.
Do you still believe in your love for me to be enough?
         Or will my issue be enough to defeat the future of you and I?
I see your smiles and gentle caresses, I see your determination to love me.
         Issues and all, I believe you can love me truly.

Warning

         I warned you, didn’t I?
My biggest fear is my own warning labels.
         Didn’t I share enough with you?
What my love can do, should be a warning enough.
         Isn’t it?
Did I not caution you before?
         My love is rarely long lasting.
How could you think you’d be any different, an exception.
         Wasn’t my deepest fear not a clear enough warning?
I don’t stay, my love is as everchanging as the phases of the moon.
         Why would I stay, if my love was no longer strong enough.
Why would my love save you?
         If it was able to save me.
Why trust in my love, as if it wasn’t a blood red warning against.
         Why suffer though my love?
As if I wasn’t your biggest warning?
