Feel the stale breath of Love on your cheek,
And offer Love a stick of gum.
Hear the lament of lovers long-since gone,
And whistle along to their dirge.
Whistle out of key.
There's no point in remaining bitter,
And even less point in denying that you are.
Just accept the fact and move on.
You're weighed down by too many burdens,
But I don't see a single one that actually belongs to you.
Move on from this nice guy mentality
Before it gives you back problems.
You can't make way fast enough for the cynics,
So be ready for them to step on you as they move on.

It's true. You just can't worry about everything and everyone. You'd go insane if you did!

hi go4...and I'll have a piece of gum please. Nice write and like where your attitude is taking you...moving on is good, overcoming and change is better (if that is one's desire). Very well written.  Marcy

"Move on"....two little words that involve so much soul searching and determination.  
Well said - thank you!

  Very truth... And cuts right to the point.. I like this alot and hope you don't mind me sending it to a few people who need to hear ((read)) your words of wisdom...

With a little piece of tomorrow,
You'll have to kiss yesterday goodbye.
Because today won't last forever,
And the past will only make you cry.

BWA--I have no problems with you sending my poem to others.  I like having people read and experience my poetry.  Thanks for reading it yourself and I'm glad you are all enjoying it.
