Its funny how, the truth in part-
Is nothing but a lie.
And things one meant to thrill a heart,
Will only make it cry.

And words intended to bring joy,
Always seem to hurt,
And with disaster, my whole life,
I’ve always seemed to flirt.

Decisions made, decisions rued-
To write, or not to write?
Perhaps ‘tis best, and fits my mood-
To vanish out of sight

I agree with Blues. You need to stick around, John. Yours is some of my favorite poetry.

No vanishing tricks, please.

It is always a pleasure to read you, John.
