Arriving from the bar last night, What strange thing did I see? A message on the phone that said My girl was throught with me. How could she do this thing to me? I mean, how could she dare?! I had to show that silly girl That I just didn't care! I had to make her feel the pain Of giving me the air. I called her up to tell her just How much I didn't care. The phone was busy all night long! It really wasn't fair. She should have had call waiting so She'd know I didn't care. This morning I jumped out of bed And hurried over there To prove to her, once and for all, How much I didn't care. I stood there on the sidewalk, Looked completely unaware, And, when she'd pass, I'd turn away To show I didn't care. But she must have left early which Is really something rare And so I lost my chance to show How little that I cared. No matter. To her job I went. The guards gave me a stare And wouldn't let me in to show Her that I didn't care! So all day long I waited. Now My nerves began to wear. I had to let her know how much I really didn't care. Missed her again! This turned into A horrible nightmare. Why should it be so hard to show This girl I didn't care? So here I am, at midnight, Bushes tangled in my hair. This time I have the perfect plan To show her I don't care. I'll toss stones at her window so That she will be aware That I don't even miss her and I truly do not care! Gee! Look at those round, flashing lights! And what's that bright red glare? Methinks it's best to wait a bit To show her I don't care. I'll return again tomorrow and I'll end this sad affair. She'll really feel bad when she Sees how I just don't care. |

Isn't this a typical picture of a forsaken heart???.... Is there nothing you can't write about??? That's OK - I'm not jealous..... I Don't Care.....  |

Balladeer - If you really 'do not care' ... I have an idea or two that would put me in a tizzy. You could try to give me a call if her line is still busy. You could take a trip and into my yard you'd stomp .. I won't reveal my exact address but it has something to do with Green Swamp ! You could drive up the state and arrive at County Line RV. Cause there you'd find me working ... and we'd roll out the red carpet with glee. Outside my window I'd even plant a bush ... if I thought that you would plant your little tush ! *Having fun with you, as usual. ~*The pen of the poet never runs out of ink, as long as we breathe.*~ noles1@totcon.com |

Balladeer, If I didn't care I'd send a letter in the mail That is if I really didn't care. Great poem as usual. |

Great job depicting someone who doesn't really care, I mean I could really tell how much they didn't care. You do have a talent deer. I enjoy everything you write. |

For someone who don't care you sure go through an awful lot of trouble to show it! Great one Balladeer. Psst...check your spelling and spacing! |

He said he didn't care But there he was again Standing by her window On the outside looking in His spying's getting worse Afraid to let her go But more afraid of what he'll see At night in her window [This message has been edited by hoot_owl_rn (edited 12-10-1999).] |

Hummm, tune, rambling through my head... "took a walk outside your house, late last night, all the shades were pulled and drawn, way down tight,..." perhaps you were at the wrong house? Great piece...as always. |

I waited for your phone call all that morning you see, and I saw you standing out there... not wanting to talk to me. I heard commotion while at work but I was crying so hard... If I'd seen your frantic face, I'd have stopped the guard. I saw the flashing lights that night as I was driving home, But our neighbor (you know the one) thought you were a prowler on the roam. I wanted to say that I was wrong that I was only scared... That I love you more than life it's self, but didn't think you cared. I realize now that you are gone because of foolish fears and now all that I have of you is a picture stained with tears.< !signature--> "Glory remains unaware of my neglected dwelling where alone I sing my tearful song which has charms only for me." -Charles Brugnot [This message has been edited by Saxoness (edited 12-10-1999).] |
