this is for jeremiah...because his words touch me so much and i want to thank him for making me feel good about myself...and my writing...thank you jeremiah johnson...i hope you get to read this! oh and can anyone tell me, has he left yet?


~I Fall~

I thought alot of a man today,
my busy mind working.
He is a mystery,
this man i know.
his words are like poetic justice,
and his talent like a sacrificial right.
I know him not,
this man i know.
Everytime i think of him,
poetry comes to mind.
I silently think,
love may be blind.
Then i think of 'him',
the other man.
and i realize,
love is a sham.
poetic justice might it be,
but love is nothing,
but pain,
to me.
then slowly,
as i read his words,
i see the truth in it all.
as slowly in love,
with his words,
do i fall.

Its always very nice Nickolette, to take the time to compliment a fellow poet, and Im sure he will appreciate this very much!!! I think he may have already left, Im not sure, but when he comes back, bring it back up for him to read!! Nice Job!!

Jeremiah is a good guy. I actually had the privelage of knowing this guy personally... he lived right near me for a while. I think he left by now... he's a bit strange(j/k)
but a good guy... Hey? When will you get rid of the illiterate chica?

I think it’s a pity to lose him, I think we all enjoy his work.  A true giant, who’s mastery of words was rivaled only by his superhuman empathy.

when you know love will set you free?

Drowning there for all eternity? ~Live
