~ Seven Itch ~ Silent at night she peaks through ivory blinds Wondering when he'll be coming home tonight Dawn quickly approaching her sleep now disturbed Sounds of door opening and tip-toeing are heard Entering the room he stumbles to the sheets Quickly she rises and questions him He carefully exits the bed and walks away Shaking his head not even a word does he say The day has come the two must face Reality of how things have changed Following him from room to room Her tears fall from her cheeks unto the floor Words left unspoken only her heartache can be seen Suitcase in tow and doorknob in hand Twist of the wrist and off he went Searching for something he doesn't even know The seven year itch is what she's been told.

Kit, thank you for reading this lil twist of a verse it's always nice to have you visit me Marge, I hear you gurl and I would agree .. suitcase should be handed to him. One of these days I'll put to rhyme a sweet verse like 'Marge' those .. one of a kind's! Devina, it's a treat to have you also pass thru the screen and take a peak at this lil verse that popped out from me. Coco [This message has been edited by CocoBaci (edited 05-30-2000).] |

Very well done! I think I know that lady and I believed she sprinkled his Fruit of the Looms with hot pepper before he left out the door. Then, when he starts itching, he may even think about her. {smile}(I'm with the rest of the ladies on this one.) Great story. Marcy |

Coco, I am with Marge here.....give him the suitcase and don't give him the satisfaction of seeing your tears. He'll figure out what he's missing...you...but it will be too late. You'll have found the kind of love you deserve. Best wishes to you!! Good writing and tough subject.

Good writing. I'm also with the ladies above...this is a sorry excuse (the 7 year itch), like it's inevitable. I think a better excuse is inconstancy, or perhaps inconstancy and cowardice. |

Alle, Lorrain, Wolfe and Jana, thank you dearly for your supporting comments. Twas a coincidence when this one popped out from my head. I jumped to the screen and jotted it down cus I felt strongly that it may be a topic worth a quick read. Anyways, I must it's been some time now and life is better every day!
