All about you You chased away My dreams With your priceless Fairy tales You cheated me Of happiness With adulterous ways You never denied You locked my hopes Inside an iron box Threw the key into "Gone-for-good" Forever to be lost But, Recently you see, I’ve learned a precious Bit of knowing: Despite your Protestations, Your actions, And your words… It’s never really been, All about you.

Cassanova (Jason): This piece is raw with emotion -- with loss and bitterness, pain and a scathing sense of betrayal -- and you conveyed all of these powerfully and well. I must say my favorite part is the ending -- you wrapped it up nicely with a touch of hope for healing. It does the spirit well to hear a happy note after such a heart-wrenching dirge ... Well done, new friend -- you are in good company here. --Kess Full fathom five thy father lies, Of his bones are coral made, Those are pearls that were his eyes; Nothing of him that doth fade But doth suffer a sea-change Into something rich and strange... --William Shakespeare, from The Tempest |

Jason~ Gosh, I like this so much. Threw the key into "Gone-for-good" Very descriptive ... you seem to have turned a corner with 'It’s never really been, All about you.' Welcome to Passion's. No 'boo' ... just welcome! ~*Marge*~ ~*The pen of the poet never runs out of ink, as long as we breathe.*~ [email protected] |
