To all the men in my life, and out of it...this is for you

I guess I expected more..
more from someone so strong
In my eyes you were
everything
the provider, the protector
and yet you all
have let me down
I'm sure you did your..
best
but your best
was never
more
than what I carried
for you.
The phone calls
never came soon enough
The I love you's
never often enough
and the apologies
were
nonexistent.
Soon enough
You will know
what you lost,
to your manly, barbaric
no give-a-dam ways
but by then I'll be
long
gone
moving on to some other
disappointment
along the way.
Love always
You know who

Attitude is everything...I was talking to a woman the other night and when she found out my name was James, she started giving me a hard time, because her ex-boyfriends name was also James...I've noticed that when the person you are dating has been involved in a bad relationship, just previous to you, they tend to take it out on you...I've done it myself...James

Are you really writing a poem on which you suck in everything

Anger, emotion, drive, will to dominate, people to wait on you as a poem is a great and one needed to be written

If is was a personal statement

I'd be surprised you wrote

I read 'James' comment, and that surprised me as well

No-one owes anyone a life
