[Can you help me make up for old times?]


I’m laying in my bed thinking about all the mistakes I ever made in life. Mistakes I made because I, thought I had found love, but at that time love was not me. I wanted it so bad till I let myself find it in all the wrong places. I didn’t know were I wanted to be, and every time I thought I had found it I was wrong. Different dudes, Different race, Different perspective, but no matter how different they all had one thing in common; none of them were for me. I’ve been called out of my name for things I didn’t do. The whole time I’m thinking dudes were being loyal and real but none were facts just lies none of it true. My mine in circles, Stomachs aching, and fluttering. My heart melting and I realize that it’s broke. Now what am I to do? Put my heart on the line for this them to me meant everything but what I meant to them nothing. Hey lesson learned. Like Alicia Keys “What goes around comes around”, or Keisha Cole “I remember” damn “I should have cheated”, or greeted, and meet with dudes who were going to treat me rite, but now It’s all over, and all in the past. For all I care the ones that did me wrong can kiss my ass, because I have moved on. I’m stronger, and I’m wiser. Now all there is left is to hope and pray that I find the rite one. Hey that’s practically all I can do.

Keep writing, keep writing... I can hear your words and images and I sense that you've got volumes of great poems heading up the pike. Your writing is frank and honest. I like that. I like your reflections on past experiences and your wisdom that you carry with you to the now. (As an older woman, I discovered through experience, that I couldn't find love, love found me, and it found me when I was doing what I like to do most, writing and going to writing events). I look forward to reading more of your work lynesha3000.

I like the attitude towards the end of being string enough to move on...Instead of sulking....In sadness...very nice

To have great poets there must be great audiences too.
