It's likely that we'll get along, even fall in love in a moment of downing liquor- and so what if a false sense of happiness is shared? Life is just a flicker. And happiness is happiness... regardless of how it's met, no matter the scheme or intention, it's not easy to forget. So yeah, I'll take a chance on you, if only for a night, then you can't say "you never know", whatever happens will be right. Two lonely people, may write poetry, what a duet we'd make! even it it's not real at all, I'm ready for the break where the river swiftly bends, regardless, I know we'll still be friends. |

Good morning, Ms Dix. This line from a song popped into my head as I read your poem. "Fools rush in where angels fear to tread."  lolMay that river be a gentle one! I wouldn't want to see you swept away in a raging current! Mind you, that does sound like more fun than floating down "Moon River"! lol  Be safe! Be happy!  Linda |

I completely understand!! It is better to see what may happen, than to live in doubt of what could of been! I live by that rule most of the time, and well fell a few times, but I don't live in doubt... and regret nothing.. Go for it!! If only for one moment of happiness... Beautiful I enjoyed every word Thank you for sharing!! Jen--->MindBodySoul |

Dixie girlie, the line that popped into my head while reading this is the one I've lived by for a lot of years now ... ~I don't regret the things I've done .. but those I did not do~ you're right hon, happiness is happiness, grab it and growl ... and there'll be no "what ifs" later to wonder about *smiles* ~Sheli~ |

I have found that happiness comes in making right choices... and suffering by making wrong choices... at least that is our measure of control... Having experienced both, I have no answers, only my desire to try to make the choices that are best for me...James |
