looking back

[creativesoul]

she looked him up sometimes
his picture
always explained so much more
then shall we say-the average bore
23 years of stories rolling off my tongue- you glance and i see
that what is mostly yours has always been mine'
yet the fines
the reasons you have for not loving me
add up to a larger amount than i can pay
the love i lost
the stray cats
all the things that hide in the corners
waiting
the lover that died
while wanting to plead that would just once say'i need you'

[Kailashana]

Some great lines here. Particularly liked--- never mind, the whole poem from beginning to end is genuinely reflective ...

Reflective poem; well captured and enjoyed.

the complications of getting involved.....most relationships would work better I think if we each had our own apartment........a place to retreat to, a neutral ground to sort things out.....we could visit each other, sometimes spend the night, work a little harder at communication, work a little harder on our personality, .....just a thought that occurred to me as I was reading this and relating to some of the other poems recently posted here....

yes co habitation is over rated= love is good= but if these elements are misconstrued
i do what i can and live
in a place of deep sea
and minerals
all the sweetness i did want
some i wanted to flaunt
it is over
i am sober
no answers for the questions
just being what i need to be
the history tells itself=thanks

when the dust settled
and the smoke had fled
O Christ !
was all she said
