    Confused, With My Head Ducked in Laughter

    "Confused, With My Head Ducked in Shameful Laughter"

    Watching you,
    The two of you,
    I can’t help but want to be her.

    It’s not that I want to replace her,
    What you two have is truly unique—
    I just want to have that bit of you.

    I want you to joke with me—
    Be able to know,
    That when I go home—
    You’ll be my companion—

    Sing with me,
    The way that you sing with her.
    Be mine for those moments,
    Only those moments.

    Play the simple words,
    Whisper to me—
    Even to tell me,
    "Darling, you’re doing it all wrong."
    I don’t care.
    Whisper.

    It’s not that I’m in love with you,
    I never have been,
    Never will—
    But I do love you—

    And sometimes,
    Sometimes—
    I just want to be yours.

    Smirk at my Musings,
    I’m confused—

    Not that I’m in love with you,
    Never have been—
    Never will.

    Like wise in all songs and dance to be two you have to Be one... In unison as the words that come off your pen... I can never whisper when... Not off my lips , the key board won't even do.... So keep writing back to the wind... The effortless romance of ink, never rubs off of a page, but the stain left by the water leaves a heart of rage... It is amazing how your raw emotion keeps me reading more as I am doing nothing for sure... This time I must go .... But I want you to know.. Talent that you have is amazing and is a gift of love...

    The true philosopher and the true poet are one, and a beauty, which is truth, and a truth, which is beauty, is the aim of both.

    Ralph Waldo Emerson, American Poet (1803-1882)
