    Don't Play That Song Again

    Here I am at a get together. Everything is going
    fine. I thought I was late getting here, but seems
    I am on time.

    The D.J. plays a song and I am taken a-back. Anything,
    but this song, tell me why did he do that?

    This song creates too many memories of a love I once
    had. Like a time machine here I am visiting my own
    past.

    There she is in a beautiful dress, the love of my
    life is adorned. I'm telling her, "When your mother
    gave birth to you, my love, a star was born."

    She's telling me, "You are my sun, my moon, my stars
    and my whole world. This is so wonderful! I am so
    blessed to have you call me your girl."

    Now I see me putting a promise ring on her finger.
    She's now crying, by not only this, but by the
    words of the song from singer.

    Standing there and seeing this, I am frozen in time.
    Tears falling down, saying to myself, "This girl was
    once mine."

    The song is now over and I snap back into reality.
    People are staring, pointing, looking, asking what's
    wrong with me.

    Oh I am okay, I was taken a-back just then. I just
    have one request D.J., "Don't play that song again."

    Gotta say I just love it love it love it!....Of course dont love the hurt that you are feeling at a familiar song that brings you memories of a long lost love, but I do share a kin ship in that I understand. You extend yourself to be so open, and vunerable and honest with your readers... You truly wear you emotion on your sleave and you are a better poet because of it... Great Read...

    In science one tries to tell people, in such a way as to be understood by everyone, something that no one ever knew before. But in poetry, it's the exact opposite.

    Franz Kafka (1883-1924) Czech writer.
