She had to let go
Or loose herself completely to the
Romance of you
Reality simply won't let her ~
Yet sometimes.....she dreams......

Good one. Dreams are for dreaming. You have to live with reality.

Didn't know this type of rhyme was called acrostic. Did a lot of those in my own language, but now I have to try in English.

Really enjoyed it.

I remember a line from "Love Story" that said: "Being in love is never having to say you're sorry."  I thought that was a bunch of bull.

Your work made it even more untrue.

Write on, gal!

Live for love. Without love, you don't live.

i could totally identify with this one but at the same time, i decided changing the reality might be a good idea, but on the other hand, some people just can't or won't do that and that certainly is their preogative, but on the same hand, dreaming is good, but then again, fantasy is a whole lot of fun but also, reality is a whole lot funner!! ain't it? *wink*

lol...

oh geesh... i rambled again... leave it to doreen to respond to a simple acrostic written with such style and grace with a few well worked words .... with a long ramble about reality, fantasy, decisions, changes, and all that sorta stuff.....

whatever am i talking about? who the hell knows? certainly not me.... if i figure it out, maybe i'll write a poem about it...

oh but i already did!! no wait! i didn't!! i was trying to write 2 companion pieces... one called "the trouble with reality" and the other called, "the trouble with fantasy" but i never finished them!!! because i couldn't tell them apart!!! *wink*

teehee

awwww geez.... still rambling aren't i? i guess that says something about how your work inspired my thinking or dreaming or fantasizing or imagining things... ROFL...or something...

i'm so

yes, I can totally identify with this, sometimes it takes a lot of grace to tell fantasy from reality., a well thought out piece, SEA
