The Things I Never Said A tormented heart finally revealed Tears of pain in hidden eyes A soul pleaded feelings it had concealed In fancy costumes, there the truth lies With wine upon lips, the erotic pleasures to hold Selfish sins of a gold band Darkness whispers of scandals untold Set free, to one who holds the left hand I say now what I never said A friend in me no better you will find But I can't forget that you are wed So come to me if only in my mind And let me say the things I never said Marina 200 [This message has been edited by Marina (edited 06-20-2000).] |

A soul pleaded feelings it had concealed In fancy costumes, there the truth lies With wine upon lips, the erotic pleasures to hold Selfish sins of a gold band Darkness whipers of scandals untold Set free, to one who holds the left hand ----------------- So come to me if only in my mind And let me say the things I never said ----------------- ooh girl I LOVE this one... the rhyme is perfect, its reads lyricly like a song... some really cool lines in this gem... love those last two... and the second verses crytic feel keep coming cool-poet-gator jm It's amazing How you make your face just like a wall How you take your heart and turn it off How I turn my head and you lose it all ... And it's unnerving (How one move just puts me by myself) There you go just trusting someone else (Now I know I put us both through hell) ... I'm not sayin That there was nothing wrong (I just didn't think you'd ever get tired of me) And I'm not sayin (We ever had the right to hold on) (I just didn't wanna let you get away from me) ~MB20~ She says baby, It's 3AM ... I must be lonely, When she says baby, Well I can't help but be scared of it all sometimes, Says the rains gonna wash away I believe it. ~MB20~ |

marina~ well you weaved some magic with that pen of yours in this one! to say this is good would be an understatement! this was an awesome poem...truly loved the last stanza! take care. amy "Don't be dismayed at goodbyes. A farewell is before you can meet again. And meeting again after a moment or a lifetime is certain for those who are friends." "Fate exists but it can only take you so far, Because once you're there It's up to you to make it happen." |

Enjoyed your poem,my favorite lines! With wine upon lips, the erotic pleasures to hold Selfish sins of a gold band Darkness whipers of scandals untold Set free, to one who holds the left hand |

This is a beautiful and touching poem. I love the rhyming, it's perfect. "We are all in the gutter, but some of us are looking at the stars." -Oscar Wilde "The robbed that smiles steals something from the thief" -Shakespea |

James, thank you. You are very sweet and compliments mean a great deal to me. Lovebug,thanks......the rhyming wasn't easy! AL, thank you. I am glad you feel I was able to convey my message James....Thank you so much for pointing out my small spelling error. Not like me to make a mistake is it? LOL Now, about this whipping issue.......I feel that perhaps you have some deep secluded feelings that perhaps you are harbouring. Could it be that your subconciuos is playing you in dreams? HMMMMMMM........perhaps you should visit Dr. Sig. Martinque, thank you. Marina < !signature--> It is blessing to have wings for your words, and passion to flow from pen.
