Which one do you love...is it me or is it you? Must I always ask?
You make me feel loved, you talk yourself into it, but your feelings wane,
becoming more clear, showing off your lies of love, keeping your secrets
So I tell my friends of your true undying love...perpetuating

Congratulations! They all think I'm so happy, but all I feel is blue
...Then comes the aging.
I should start to reel it in as you go about, still telling your lies
Those who may remain suffer my redundancy, writing of your love

It’s been too long now and good old friends are far and few
...Time to hit the road.
Just one more time though, let me tell how you love me so they will believe,
and perhaps I will too, I'll talk myself into it...perpetuating

Bluesy,
You're breaking my heart at the crack of dawn, how am I supposed to get through the rest of the day? What a horrible lament. They don't call you Bluesy for nothin'. I hope this is as blue as it gets for you. Here
this will make us both feel better

Aww! Are we hugging or bump dancing?

Thanks, Miss Lori. I'm okay. This is about a girl I knew when I was in Kindergarten. I've been over her almost two-weeks now. It's true what they say; "Time heals all wounds".

Your words touched home to me as I read this...I oft wonder why we do it sometimes....Love til' we can't love anymore and keep giving til it hurts...and for what? We lie to ourselves but deep down the truth is there. It's sad when you give your heart to someone and they don't return it...You've written it well Bluesy ~ Enjoyed the read

Thank you so much for reading and considering so much of my efforts, Miss Pinky. We do these things because we are lovers and romantics and we always believe that one day, it'll all work out...until it doesn't and we begin once more. It seems you never find "it"..."it" finds you. Maybe the trick, if there is one, is to just stop, and give "it" a chance to catch up to you.

Thanks again!
