ALWAYS  a step ahead
I am trying to RUN
Assumptions were read
Trying to keep a cool head

I READ your moves
It would stir the groves
The next card I played
To soothe this torrid  mood


Symptoms were analyzed
And reality,  I could not realize
I could only see through haze
I was blinded by this crazy  maze

We are apart in body, mind and soul
Life and it's hard  knocks,  took it's toll
All I wanted is to grow old
Now,  all I have is a sign that says, SOLD!

So we TRY  a way out
As,  I sit  here  and pout
To you,  it is all about
Money.... in the bank
What will it look like
That success,   finally sank?

Your pride meant more to you,  than ME
I can  clearly see that to a,       * T *
So,  I turned  into the REJECTOR
For,  I found  it  MY   protector

God,    how  desperately   I   hate this
I,     only wanted  and believed  bliss
Yet  now,  all I do is reminisce
Of our experienced,  passionate   kiss

It was never  intended     to be
Even though  I refused    to see
But now all that was surreal, has become real
I am left with a fate that has only one seal

I used  rejection
As a defense mechanism
To soften the lost
The terrible cost
I would pay for you


The rejection of you
And the rejection of me
Of all I had to trully see
And it came only through
The  acceptance of final  reality

Yet,  I am no more the sane
Because the simple fact is
This life is so full of pain
But my life with rejection
Made  me INsane!

Hi Illusion! First of all, I'm sorry I haven't had a chance to reply to your e-mail. I got your piece and liked it very much. Things kinda went crazy on my end within the last week. I will reply and talk some more this weekend, I promise.

Now, for the business at hand. I liked this piece and could relate to it in so many ways. It would appear that we are of like mind. Good job, bravo, keep'm come'n.

Take care and I wish you the best. I'll talk to ya soon!

Regret not that which you have done,
Rather that which you haven't

Hey great Job on this piece
I can really relate
only I seem to be like rubber ball that
keeps coming back for more torture
and then off again as I realize
all these things too
great Job
Keep up the good work

Thanks for the responses!  It is unfortunate though that anyone else would have to relate to this....YUCK!   But we trudge forward with pen in hand!
