I thought I had a love that would stand the test of rhyme
I thought that I should write my verse for the rest of time
But, alas, the time I spend in the blues of passion’s press
Seems to have become my love, my all, some say my other “mistress”

That ‘some’ is my other half, my very better flesh of flesh
The one I promised to love, to honor, and certainly cherish
Though it seems I feel inspired when the words here I do pen
If she could have her way, I might not ever do it again

So if some day I disappear from the scheme of these pages
Don’t file an APB or missing person’s report
Just chalk it up to being banned and know that ‘some’one rages

hahaha - How many of us here can relate with that.  I have to work really hard at not spending too much time here -  I do have more important things to do! (at times anyway)

I hope that doesn't happen. *S* But you've written a scene all too many know all too well... and what a shame it is. *S*

I know...I know of what you speak..
I have so much to do..but once I open the doors to these blue halls...
there goes my day...and night.
I think the trick is to compromise.
