Ok guys... the poem i really wanted too show you all i can't because it is breaching forum rules... anyway... Tell me what you reckon bout this one.. not my best, even i know that... also tell me what u reckon i should do next... Dont worry bout confusing me.. ALREADY CONFUSED... lol


“Excuse me” you ask as I walk on by
“I’m just wondering exactly why”
“Exactly what are you wondering, my dear madam”
“It’s ok she whispered, to date another man”
I look at her puzzled, “how do you know about me”
“My life history, my story… Did you hear my plea?”
She took my hand and gave it a kiss
It’s ok darling I know what you miss

“Look at you dear, you’re such a remarkable woman”
“But your stuck into a world no smaller than a can”
”You’ve had it hard and I know that”
“But you can’t keep hiding behind that hat”
“Those Aussie boys, they stop and drool hoping your self confidence gets bigger”
“You have a beautiful daughter and an amazing figure”
“I’m so glad that this is who you have become”
“But an old woman can’t wait to become a grand mum”
I looked into her eyes as the tears streamed from my face,
All I need was a shove in the right place
I went to turn and ask her a question, but she was gone, like she was non existent
But as I looked forward a smile shined at me from the distance

“Jess is that you?” he screamed from across the mall
Those gorgeous eyes I could never forget as he approached me I stood tall
He hadn’t changed one little bit; He was Paul’s best mate and we grew up together
He told me if I needed him when I had Ella, he would stay with me forever
He moved to America when his mum died before Ella was born
He hadn’t seen me in a long time but he could still see that I was torn
He placed his hand on my face; the whole world had changed with just one touch
“Look at you he said, you’ve changed so much”

He came home with me he met Ella and we talked for hours
About Paul, My boyfriend who died and about America’s most famous towers
If this was sign from the heavens above
Could This Really Be True Love????

The conversations in this piece are a bit confusing when you read them. Afterwards when you read the part about the towers and the best friend it makes more sense, but you still have to go back to the start and reread it to make it understandable...

It's a nice idea but needs a little bit of reconfiguring. Something to make the conversations within the poem less confusing. Jumps around from person to person a lot and it's hard to keep up on whose talking.

Still liked the poem and ... Well, yes, we're crazy Americans but ... eh, never mind. lol.

Thanks for sharing this piece
