I run in high heels I wear dresses to work I tip the waitress I snob the clerk I am vain but insecure Outgoing and lack confidence I hide the fact That I fear growing old My statement is weak My clothes are bold -jaimie Website: www.ladysixstring.com |

Your statement is not weak to me, Lady, and you should fear nothing. The world is yours for the asking.... |

Very forceful ladysixstrings...I enjoyed very much...espcially the line that goes "I am vain but insecure Outgoing but lack confidence" How i can relate "my love is my motivation my love is my inspiration perception of this poem is your interpretation" -- me |

Conflictual, a little bit anxious but extremely well done. I applaud you if you can run in highs heels, I never could not even when they were fashionable. Be well Kethry "It is the image in the mind that links us to lost treasures; but it is the loss that shapes the image, gathers the flowers weaves the garland."- |

Old is in the heart........I know I am there in years.....but far from it in my heart. You have shown us the powerful statements from your work so I must disagree that your statement(s) are weak. Wonderful write lady of the strings. |

I loved this - for its honesty - and - I think you are more confident than you feel- moreover you have a right to be! |
