Come Out and Play

There were many days when my desire
to come and visit you on Maui seemed
only a remote possibility to me.
Seriously Jackie when you walked away you
ruined my day, my week, my month, my heart.
Perhaps one year has passed, who knows, and
now you call me like we've never been apart.
And in some strange way you're missing me
saying I was so understanding of your problems
and stood by you through all adversity.
So what's the deal Jackie?
Are you asking me to come out and play
and after my heart grows close to you
will you once again toss me away?

(tears fall down my cheeks) Oh James, this is so very sad, my heart goes out to you for having to experience such a heartwrenching backfire! (sad sigh) I pray Jackie can have the heart to forgive you and never again hurt you like this! (big hugggsssss) Our hearts are with you, sweet friend, you deserve the greatest happiness of all! We all love you so much, sweet friend! You have such a beautiful heart, sweet James, thank you for sharing!



May love and light always shine upon you!

Love,
Noah Eaton

James - Sounds like a very tough and painful situation.  Trusting someone again who broke your heart is never easy.  Hopefully, she won't do the same thing again.  Hey, maybe you can do it to her.lol

I would ask what's the deal too, could it be that she didn't 'know what she lost, until it was gone',like in Joni Mitchell's song?Nicely crafted.



there are lots of fish in the ocean they say
people grow up and older and move their own way..

oh no no, the game must end somewhere James! I'd be hesitant to get close to her again! If your heart tells you to trust her once again then follow your heart. (Hugs)

Tread cautiously, James...sometimes they don't want us - they just don't want us to get away....just in case

Gee James, don't know what to tell ya about this one... seems a bit confusing and I can see how you would be a little hesitant as to what to do.
Good write....hugs, Nancy.

James,
magnificent work especially this line

Perhaps one year has passed, who knows,

So sad and captivating.

Here in the midst of my lonely abyss, a single joy I find...your presence in my mind.  Unknown

"love hurts when only ones in love..."     -rick springfield

this is a situation indeed... *sigh*...we all want what we cant have...if you are unavailable, she wants you..  but the question is, what do YOU want?  to love and be loved--or to be used?...can you be a friend without wanting more?  lots of thought must go into your going out to play...
good luck to you..

hugs, g
