Fantasies Sometimes I look at life and wonder Just what is it that I see Is it real or just a fancy Knawing and consuming me Can it be imagination Taking flight to who knows where I never knew a fantasy Could leave a heart in such despair I know just what a dream looks like I know my feelings when they're real But I don't why I can't stop This overpowering feel I feel It keeps me turning in the night Consuming every vital part Taking over all my senses And devouring my heart A day has only so many hours A hive holds just so many bees My heart can take just so much pain Until it falls down on its knees I don't want a broken heart I don't want more sleepless nights If he won't leave my heart at peace I'll just have to fight the fight I'll take this feel that's really real And throw it to the seven seas I'll tell my heart to take a hike And chalk it off to fantasies!

Powerful emotions, Liz! I hate to admit it but I know exactly what you're feeling. Intense, isn't it? My advice to you is this...please take your time!! Discovering the REAL person is no small task, especially if it's someone on the net. |

Girls, girls, girls! This is just a poem! I once remarked that sometimes you write a poem that's true, and nobody believes it, and sometimes you fabricate a situation, and everyone starts crying. This one is .... well, I'll let you decide for yourself. I'm a married lady, you know. Thanks for caring and thanks so much for your comments. Liz |

A Heart once came into its' creators' hands.. In the sleep of her night-time.. He molded it into his plans.. She felt the pain as He formed her a jewel.. He did it so tenderly, so lovingly.. But the pain seemed so cruel.. He chipped away, both day and night.. Her soul yearning to submit- Her flesh wanting to fight.. He rounded the sharp edges.. Making a Heart just right.. So to Hell He sent her.. Yes, He'd been there before.. In the heat of the furnace.. He tempered her more.. He gave her understanding.. And a love thats beyond.. Imagination or a fantacy.. Of your Heart He is "fond".. James David "God takes His creation, And creates what He wants" Bless U Liz |

Elizabeth, my friend - Tee Hee ! The poem is lovely. The responses too. I love the shock-value presented to you ! A poem is just a poem, that much we both know. But, honey, if you ever get lonely ... you'll know where to go ! *HI, Elizabeth's hubby !  ~*The pen of the poet never runs out of ink, as long as we breathe.*~ [email protected] |

Elizabeth, Here I read between what lies. Where lies the truth in surmise. But it is not for me to speak of truth. That is for the confession booth. Your poetry is impeccable. But no to me implacable. *L* Sy |

Sy One who knows the poet well Would understand what verses tell One who knows the poetry Would clearly then its meaning see Fact or fiction, truth or jest The poet's the one who knows the best A poem is simply poetry Is it real or fantasy? Thanks for your verse Liz |

"Just" a poem - it still conveys a powerful message... and it's very true - sometimes a great deal of patience is needed to build a truly trusting bond with someone special... |
