Anybody?

Quit my job today, stupid maybe
But it was like a lover
That uses and uses
Until I had no choice but to walk away
Or be used up
And just like a lover
Called and begged me back
When enough is enough
It’s not so very hard
To make up my mind
And this isn’t really a poem
Just a really lame attempt
To say I need someone to listen right now
Even a stranger.

Anybody is here...sometimes nobody comes in too, just to listen...somebody came in and left again...one body stayed....

hugs....and good luck in what you are going after....because it will come....I've seen your work....you strive....

Ears appear
somtimes
when least expected

Time is change
I always say
and you have given
to the moment

Speak your mind
