he walked in her life toying with love and her heart it is but a game ~*~ another score made never minded her feelings he’s just passing time ~*~ he just walked away never looking behind him his heart cannot see ~*~ his heart does not feel not connected to his mind the dead cannot see Fool, said my Muse to me, look in thy heart and write. |

Interloper - A lovely, dark piece. Hauntingly familiar as if I have witnessed this scene. Perhaps I have. Chris Life is not measured by breaths you take, but by moments that take your breath away. |

yes, well, yes, this does happen. It can change a person's life completely. Very sad and very true, unfortunately....some heal and remember the feelings and pray they were real and all a person ever really knows is if there's were....or not.... -befriend yourself and you will never be alone- Anna [This message has been edited by The Lady of Shallot (edited 10-18-2001).] |

Thanks to all of you for your comments and stopping by to read. For those of you that know my work, this is a departure from the norm. It was just on my heart after reading many works here with virtually the same subject. Why is it that we, men and women, cannot or will not see or care that we are shattering someone's hopes, dreams, desires, wishes, and love when we pretend at caring? Where has honesty and integrity gone? Fool, said my Muse to me, look in thy heart and write. [This message has been edited by Interloper (edited 10-19-2001).] |

This is sadly true for many whose hearts certainly did not deserve the pain. If only all were treated as they desire to be. |

Interloper--I guess the dark in life is there to help us see the light. Interesting and thoughtful poem. |

Very touching. These are the kind of men I have known. Sometimes, I wander, if they aren't all like this. Thank you for sharing this. |

I enjoyed reading this excellent poem. It sounded all too real. As my borough has always stated- Do or Die. |

Interloper I have found that most of the women I have known like this were very up front about it...they did not pretend to be something they were not...and yet I ignored the obvious thinking things would change...and in fact they change very slowly...in most cases it takes years and years...all of us need to ask ourselves the question...are we willing to give years of our lives hoping someone will be what they are not when in fact they are exactly who they are...James |

Thank you for the wonderful comments ![]() James - anyone who marries another believing they can change that person is a fool. Fool, said my Muse to me, look in thy heart and write. |

what he couldn't see what he didn't understand she knew this game well ~*~ he was not the first to play these games with her heart she has played before ~*~ her heart, an old pro many scars remain to show she will be just fine ~*~ |

I missed reading this one the day it was posted. It is unconscionable to toy like this with another's heart and soul, and anyone who could do this better stay away from my heart. |

Oh, my I am glad I wandered back a bit to find this. I wonder how people can not even see when they crush anothers heart and soul. And not care, either. You did these very well, with the exact feeling involved, on my part anyway. Sandra |
