PostPoems Be Artistic. Be Creative. Be Inspired!

thank you!

For what?

for being your sad sweet self

for putting another s feelings before your own

for setting your mystic mirrored image aside upon

a modest shelf

and for the generosity of spirit that is not so readily seen in other s or shown

Oh, is that all?

maybe a little less

but don't think you and I are through just yet

why, I think your eyes have grown a wee bit wet

Tell me, what's going on in that beautiful head

of yours?

why beautiful thoughts of course

Do you always talk in circles?

when it suits me

Like now?

no, right now I have an acute case of mistaken

identity

Meaning?

you can't love another if you can't love yourself

Who is it that you think you love but can't?

why, you the handsomest tyrant!

That's sweet

the feeling makes me feel unfilled yet complete

I think you and I then are both in for quite a

treat

Well, if you're going to run away with yourself

you'd best use your own feet!

That my love, I'll have to remember and repeat!
