    Complications

    Where do I go from here?
    My body is numb
    with the cliched autopilot.
    My feelings have turned
    to soured existances
    They are pushing him to me
    but I want my long lost 'love'
    It's too soon to make choices
    on the guy they want me with
    but I promised myself I'd have fun
    and not get too attached like I always
    do.

    I scream with a dull voice
    scratching the cords with harsh, winded fingers
    Stress, anger, and love have mixed
    poisoning my mind to sorrow.
    Am I alone in this
    or is this life just a really bad dream
    waiting for me to wake?
    I'll admit, he's amiable but I just met his humor
    I want the strong guy that I once loved and still.
    This man is now back in the States
    but does he want me?  Does he think I'm the same?
    Does he think that shy, quiet girl still possesses this body?

    I guess I'll never know,
    I don't know if I'll see him.
    If I do, I'll give my heart
    all over again.
    I can't afford love, though I still love him
    He's always had a special place in my suffered heart
    Waiting for that place to grow larger
    but waiting has been years.
    Years of mistakes that have been made
    in his military absence.
    I fell for someone who gave me attention
    but that attention was in vain.
    I began to fall for an older man
    but he's pushed away
    protecting his heart and creating a thick barrier
    I can't break through even if I tried.
    And I was left with the status of friend to him.

    life and love are stranded creatures be.

    Poetry is either something that lives like fire inside you or else it is nothing, an empty formalized bore around which pedants can endlessly drone their notes and explanations.
