Now I remember who you are!!
The one born without the guiding star,
The one who forgets to see and feel,
The one who's life hangs until the next kill!

I saw the signs but chose to ignore them,
With childish hopes and dreams,
Little did I know you'd tear my very existance apart,
Tear from seam to seam.

Petty jealousies,
Knowing no reasons or rights,
Why must it all be this way?
Why must everything be a fight?

Not liking your life in the shadows,
Yet still refusing to step into the sun,
Even forgetting how to laugh for real,
Your being exposed, dying and undone.

If only I'd remembered sooner,
And saved us all the bother,
Saved me and mine from a tortuous journey,
I've learned enough to never be fooled by another.

crossed daze between
sucha way to believe
decadent ovations about the moon
something about
maybe the light,
maybe today
something just ran in to me

Hello my friend, I see we are again noticing similar circumstances in our life. Not seeing the signs, trusting too much. Why is it always like this?
Take care.

Strong stuff! The same thing can happen to men. We can get so caught up in what we think is a dream come true, that we fail to see the nightmare lurking in the shadows.

I'm with Jonas. . .it happens to us too. . .

and Sandra. . . it happens because we have a heart. . . and we believe that people are good. . . and there are people who take advantage. . .

Wonderful poem my friend. . .
