Just a quick poem...kind of
Have you ever had someone on your mind?
And you know that the chances are, that they aren’t thinking about you.
A percentage of your mind thinks that things might work out,
But reality tells you that it’s not the truth.

A part of your soul wishes words can be spread
And a thought can be packaged, delivered
You know for yourself that you’re left on your own
Without help, she won’t hear a word.

Alone again, and the past never ends
You think that she might hear my voice
Hope has been lost, because the price is the cost
Once again I haven’t a choice.

1. Nice poem
If you like to read and write poetry we have a poetry group now. Things are moving kind of slow over there so we'd appreciate more people getting involved.

2. I just whipped that one out
Most of my stuff is lyrics. I'll look into it. Thanks Droopy!

4. Do you?
I have written a lot of stuff in my life, but this was just off the cuff. It is how I feel right now about someone, but it's not my best work. Just some thoughts.

5. Sometimes those are the best ones...the ones that speak from the heart
without agonizing over the exact content. I like your thoughts. I just hope maybe they aren't true in your case. Maybe she really does feel the same way? I hope so. :)

6. Did you go to New York?
If you did, I hope you had fun.
Yeah, there actually is someone I am thinking of. i don't do it much, but I am today. Who knows? Maybe she is thinking the same.

7. I went to NY - it was a lot of fun.
I have some pictures, but I have to get everyone's name straight and permission to post their pictures before I start a thread. Thanks for asking.

We had a great time in Rudy's and then going out to dinner. Some of us went downtown afterward and went to a piano bar and then did a little shopping in the village. :D

8. That was kinda sad
but I guess intimate thoughts sometimes can be.

9. Very nice, johnnie...very...
Especially for off-the-cuff...I can identify with it as well, a little. I didn't know you did poetry. I'd love to see some more!

:hi:
