So far, yet  so far.

I enjoyed the uncomfortable

silence

as we sat

in love

yet worlds apart.

even kittens can kill

It's short and kinda confusing but I like it.

Heh yeah, it is kind of short, but I really don't think that size matters *waits for the inevitable jokes to pass*. What matters is the meaning, the emotion and the feel of the peice.

Thanks for the reply, it is really appreciated.

I enjoyed this.  It didn't need to be any longer because you got the point across nicely.

Just another argument between two people in love. They know they will work it out, but for now why talk to each other.  It works.

Y'know, Andrew...I've always been able to read your poetry quite fluently...and interperet it in my mind, just PERFECTLY. Although, discribing and saying, out loud, what I think it all means is tough.

And I agree, it's short---but get's the job done. *giggles*

The world is good, and nothing bad ever happens!

I liked it, simple yet elegant. It stuck a nerve in me for I've been going through something like this at the present. Well written in my opinion, short and yet it expresses a lot.

"as we sat

I don't quite know why, perhaps it's the past, but this struck a chord in me. I'm really liking the way that you're doing the short poem thing; it honestly works very well for you.  This is definitely going into my library. Very well done, Andrew. Very well done

Life may be hard, but it's your attitude that determines your happieness

The short ones are often the better ones...  I really liked this.  So much said within so few lines. Don't think I've seen you around much lately, but it's nice seeing you around     Thanks for posting.

Again, a beautifully written piece that captures some of the feelings that even longer poems lack. It's to the point, yet open for thought. A pleasure to read.

Sometimes the smallest things have the greatest influence.

ps- loved the redundant title. I'm putting this one in my library.

I'm really into saying as little as possible at the moment. A few influences coming into play I think. Thanks for the replies, they are much appreciated

Very good! It's amazing how a few words can describe something better than an entire book. Nice write!
