Excuse me, but
I do believe
That I percieve
A spirit of jealousy.

You definitely hold
A special place,
But there's something
You've failed to see.

I am your friend but,
I am not yours.

Your possesive self
Will only bring our
realtionship a pending death.
It makes no sense,
For you to be so dense.

Do you think that you're the
Only one, habitating my world.
I refuse to let your tudes blow
Me around in your tornado's whirl.

I will not let you unfold me,
Nor will I let you control me.
So you might as get a grip,
Cuz I ain't lettin' you put
Me on no guilt trip.

Get over it sistah girl.
I may be your friend but
I am not yours.


O Morning...wrap yourself around me today. Let me experience the peace I see in you.

Joyce Rogers

that's so great. no one should have the power to change who you are. beat those feelings down and come up on top.

You don't need to take none of that.  
I like this poem because it had power.  Poetry that puts you above the problem and talks down to it is always my favourite.
Great work.

I was born myself, raised myself, and will continue to be myself. The world will just have to adjust.

I'm in love with my shadow
I admire it daily

You definately dont need to take this...you should tell this person how you feel and who knows, maybe they never realized what they were doing and everything will be ok   I hope!!!

Ooooh I know this too well. I am jealous by nature, but you gotta learn to put a lid on it if they're not YOURS. You aren't dating, so you gotta deal, you know?
LOL Anyway, I thought this was great.

i love the poem not only because it has power but because it points out a lot of things that go on in a friendship relationship. especially when that friend wants to become your boyfriend or girlfriend. it occurs to both male and females so i hope they all read this. excellent writing though. please come to mine.%%
