Farewell by miss abagail mannering I loved you once, not long ago. the pain at times, still grieves me so. The person called Mike I came to know, performed for me, quite a show. The laughs we shared were like a tonic, but in the end were like Bubonic. The lines you said became unharmonic and the letters you wrote were spelled by phonic. I stood by you, though you lied to me. I'd hoped someday that you would see how very much I cared over these past years, three... but now I know that will never be. So, no I bid you and the 'missus,' "Farewell." For, if ever you cared for me i could not tell. If down life's road we meet.. "Swell." And if not..."Oh, well." written feb. 5-7 1999 this is the 'follow up poem many of you wanted from I WONDER HOW YOU ARE TONIGHT...i wrote this after i found out that he had taken on a supposed wife (whom i now know he did not). I was heart broke...and the rest, as they say, is history. "Some people aren't worth a puddle of ant pee in the middle of a dessert when it's 100 degrees in the shade." -me |

It's so sad the games some people play. But in the end, it is they who are the losers. Great poem! Denise |

I have to agree with Denise But there is hope for someone else I see Sad the last part surely is Life has a lot of those Hit and Miss To many I think Nevertheless a nice poem you did would it be so good without him? I know sometimes the price we pay is to high, way to high. You have my heart < !signature--> The ability to describe life with words is similar to painting a picture; both can be powerful tools.
