I have loved before and to those women I showed, wanted to show... what I thought was "real" love I am a man that falls fastly and those I loved... obsessively usually... and this time, well, this time it is different or at least feels different maybe it is the timing maybe it is because I already broke up with her once my heart was... shell shocked guarded on the heals of two relationships that went bad at the same time... but one still in limbo... perhaps but I can't love won't love, a girl I cannot trust love a girl who sleeps with other men? Is it possible? Is it probable? there are other relationships that work this way in this country. so they say... but my heart, my heart I cannot say and so to that girl I say nay. and so I guarded my heart from a woman from a woman I could not trust while I still loved another trust, hmmm what is trust? Is it understanding? Knowing something, some behavior and saying... It's ok? then it broke, suddenly swiftly as fast as it started that first one of the three and it was ugly they say, some say well, maybe now I say... a love that starts fast dies fast! and so, this relationship this relationship builds slowly my heart still guarded trust and friendship build slowly simultaneously and still I wonder still I worry about... being used like a sentence with no period. I know she worries, this new girl, I know she cares and still... (sigh) she cares. She cares like a sigh like a soul slow exhale her eyes her eyes like a pool like a bath to bathe in gentle and calm she flutters, she bats those lash...es in a flash and I smile I laugh on the inside and kiss them shut my butterfly girl with the butterfly eyes that spy... Motýl she touches me like no other she touches me like... like a lover eyes green as the river... Motýl [This message has been edited by martiniat8 (03-17-2011 01:12 AM).] |

quote: Possibly...but only if she has stopped with them, once with you. Then again, you'll really know if you tell her that it would be nice, if she quit taking their calls. |

good advice, however I don't love that girl, won't get involved with that girl. I like this one, the Motyl :-) |

I can really connect to this poem. My boyfriend who i was deeply in love was cheated on me. I swore to myself that we were done but... then I found out I was pregnant with HIS baby and thought it would bring us together. I was naive... I was wrong... |

There is an old saying, "Once the bridge is burnt, it can never be rebuilt in the same way." Talking about the girl that sleeps around while supposedly your girl. You can never trust her again. A slap in the face is a slap in the face, no matter how you analyze it. ~*~ If they give you lined paper, write sideways. ~*~ |

Thanks for you comments, and advice. Yes, I stayed away from the girl that sleeps around. Unfortunately the Motyl, was just that, a butterfly, I never could catch, but I enjoyed the moments she rested on my arm. |
