That inability, or usually, loss of ability to care wholeheartedly, makes me feel bad sometimes; so that it's not being angry with that somebody else that bothers me; it's when as a result, I start to care less... it's dangerous ground..Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3334391160365031546.post-77365791841109653882008-05-29T11:14:00.000-07:002008-05-29T11:14:00.000-07:00Very beautiful :-)Very beautiful :-)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3334391160365031546.post-25140592657503840922008-05-29T12:46:00.000-07:002008-05-29T12:46:00.000-07:00OK.First poem- very contemplative.

First verse, pure observation, a guilty moment when the subject thinks they are unobserved.<br>Then, the sadness of the subject. Very poignant. No, Eve, that will never be you. Don't worry!<br><br>You second poem needs little comment. I think most people at some point or other feel what you're trying to say here. I suppose it's the eternal dance of blending with someone and trying to find the fit.<br><br>I suppose its hard- we all fear we're going to be hurt. I guess that comes across in this piece. Our walls and why we build them.<br><br>Your third poem, well, again, it worries me I'd be like that. would I really have the patience, were it to be real?<br><br>I think we all want someone who will be these things for us, but can we give it back? Good point indeed.<br><br>As for the last verse- You DO study the Bible a lot, don't you? Remind me not to get in a debate about biblical quotes with you! ;)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3334391160365031546.post-83783870849277406462008-05-29T15:36:00.000-07:002008-05-29T15:36:00.000-07:00Duh!

I guess that comes across in this piece. Our walls and why we build them.<br>Yup… I do react according to how ppl respond. If you call, and they don’t call you back… then you know, sort of… *Wry smile* and if one is really desperate, one calls again… and maybe they’ll talk to you this time, and you can forget the other times…<br><br>Jmb: Yes, the first few times I read guest posts here, I thought crushed had written them and asked someone else to help post them ;-) He gave me a week’s notice (‘cos I hardly post nowdays, myself), so that’s alright. Not sure if mine is poetry, but I do like rhyming (my bro says I should go and study Dr. Seuss ;-))<br><br>Fusion: It doesn’t actually last that long, before reality sets in…. but it’s nice :-)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
