Encouraging words And a love-longing heart Is this all that's needed For a romantic start? For what is love But an oft taken chance To see yourself worshipped inside another's glance A cynic's view I'll readily confess But humans are selfish And their lives such a mess Too cruel to be true? Too hard to consider? Just ask the divorcee And those cold and bitter |

I like it much. And yes, we humans are a mess aren't we? We sure can screw things up. But T.G.I.F. (Thank God I'm Forgiven) |

i agree, love is often a selfish "thing" ------------------ one night at the airport...Childhood Memories...eight short weeks...Music to my Ears...your countenance...just watching tv...hoarse whispers...My One and Only...Tribute to M.J....Feel the need?...serving wench...a little girl...the mistress...stolen hours...Perfection...devotion...Master ...apart...plain...chat? |

A nice point to share...it is scary when you start worshipping someone...and yes, we can be a "mess", however, we can also be some of the most beautiful & caring creatures that breathe...it's hard sometimes to stay focused on "behaving" like we'd want others to behave...it's much easier being evil - and more fun too!! Really like your thoughts Severn... ------------------ - poet FemmeFatale "The strongest man in the world is he who stands most alone..." Henrik Ibsen (1826-1906) Norwegian dramatist lyric poet |

What if there was only love and marriges? And no such thing as divorce? The world would be a better place. Happy writing. |

Hi! Thanks for comments. The interesting thing is that I'm in a relationship with the most sensitive, loving great guy I've ever met. Sounds like a cliche, but it is true! (That's not to say he's perfect, though!). I just think there are so many hurting people all over our planet, it's hard to think of sometimes. |
