Good Girl Gone….Bad it’s not so much I wish him ill just want him to know a bit of how I feel for what I once knew crumbled down to dust when I walked over the thin line of trust I am a dry desert of blowing sand never once crossing his mind he didn’t understand did he not see me broken empty in this void unspoken things gone once precious now destroyed and I wish now that he is in her arms he sees my eyes thinking of my charms and when he touches lips it is mine he will kiss for he needs to see what it is I miss and it could be true I am inside out in tilt and not acting myself but I feel no guilt and I can see him tossing in his sleep thinking what he had and tomorrow I’ll be better I am just a good girl gone….bad "if you keep looking back, you are going to miss your whole life" Unknown |

Excellent writing. Just be careful of that for which you wish. You could produce these things but the rule of three may bring a higher price than you expected. *smile* The difference between revenge and vengeance is the heat at which the dish is served; both mat have the same ingedients. Vengeance is served hot right from the oven which cooked it; it usually burns all it touches even the preparer. Revenge is dessert for the patient; it is a dish best served very cold. |

I loved the bitterness in this. This is different, for you. I said I'm going to buy a gun and start a war, |

Helen, Is that called tender revenge? Nicely done... If tears could build a stairway and memories a lane, I'd walk right up to heaven and bring you home again. |

Good girl gone? Ok . . . Bad? Don't be too hard on yourself. A brave piece, this. w.a.g. |

Helen: ya know . . . ithink this every single day and have come to the conclusion that they are the ones missing out and one day they shall awake and realize exactly what they have given up or misused . . . Good girl - gone bad? Maybe . . . I like to think that I have one angel on one shoulder and two devils on the other I wish I had written this myself xxoo |

I am a dry desert of blowing sand never once crossing his mind Excellent work... and the sad thing is... sometimes they do think of us more in their new lives than they ever did before discarding us. *S* |

Boy, did you ever! ![]() In time he may realize that the green grass might very well have been growing over a septic tank! At least we leavees would like to think so! LOL ![]() EA |

And I? Seem to be a bad girl gone...good! shaking my head...we have to cut this out, HELEN!!! LMAO... But seriously? There's pain in this. You just keep on being yourself. Others will always have an opinion as to good and evil. And you KNOW what I have to say about that! ![]() |
