I tried to wite a poem
that might, break out
of its shell a while

Dazzle you with verbal
handstands and
slight of hand tricks

But today it resembles
its oringinator -
unable to touch you


in its lifeless form

Starfish...
very nice... I'm not sure what it means for you but it ressembles a whole lot how feel about my boyfriend... My poems just don't touch him like I would want them to...I mean, he's a really deep person...an artist eaven, just not a man of many words. My life revolves around words (probably too much) and it makes me real sad that i am unable to touch him. Would you mind if I sent it to him? Maybe then he would get it...

Wow.....I really liked this one. Just enough said to make the reader think and not too little said to keep them wondering of your intentions. Good work!!
