and so you look at me with no smile so I know you can't be joking and say you don't want a woman like me anymore and its all I can do to not laugh that it took you this long to to come to this realization for I think you never wanted me not the real me and so I wonder what I did this time that didn't meet up to the woman in your mind that I am not and have long since quit trying to be (except a few times for appearance's sake) and I know a smile here and now is inappropriate so I duck away from your dismissal of me with one hidden because I finally learned that its ok if you don't like me I do [This message has been edited by Corazon (edited 04-19-2000).] |

The expression in this piece shows hurt and strength. Nice writing. A life isn't significant except for its impact on other lives. |

This is sad yet written so well, I love the ending, it showed so much strength of character. |

Enjoyed reading this Corazon...I was rejected by a woman I have know for nine months just recently but it was like I already knew we were not a match and I knew it was going to happen but I didn't know exactly when..so when it did happen I was already prepared and perhaps relieved. James |

Too many times, having someone not like us causes us to dislike ourselves, too. Liking ourselves in spite of what others feel is much harder and much more important because, once we reach that level, they can not hurt us any more. Love the writing.... |
