Audience Of One (for a friend)

he whispered
to me
it was time
his words
moved on
and it was
like a slap
and made
me cold
a chilling
of emotions
why deprive eyes
of words
does he
not realize
there is
no just
no rhyme
or reason
I too
have know
that darkness
and it’s loneliness
has hollowed
me to
the core
and it has
slowed me
at times
to no
silver trail
but even if
there if just
an audience of one
it is still
an audience
(please don't go)

I do enjoy how you talk to the sides of your world with your woman. She is strong sometimes and soft sometimes..but she speaks...cool babe

Tell this person? That more people read than reply. And sometimes? folks just don't know what to say...

I understood what this was about, and, I agree with you--it took me time to find some of my favorite poets here.

I urge your friend to stay as well.

h,
I'm inclined to agree w/ k, never say goodbye, at least not here.

And,
some days I come here for the rhyme
other days I have no time
I may read only one or few
other days somebody new
at times the words I do not know
other days I think they flow
and now and then I will reply
other days I'm just too shy
I might babble or be terse
other days I scribe a verse
so don't go running off just yet
other days the poet will be met
