I cared for you so much
sometimes still (more than I should)
I search for reasons why
and what captivated me so strongly
We were so different
so much the same
We didn't want the same things,
but we were in the same place
You are one of few
who I liked first
You caught me
and I let you into my mind
You didn't try to seduce me
it was all on my own
You didn't prod me along
it was only what I wanted
It was all so wrong
so beautifully right
It wouldn't last
thank you for not telling me
Such a short amount of time
so much time between us
Such an innocent passion
you allowed me cradle
I still don't know
how it all fell together
I am still glad
that it actually did
WELCOME
..and here are a few things to keep in mind:
This blog contains mostly my poetry and a few thoughts from time to time. The thoughts will be entered when and wherever I feel necessary to keep things in proper order. Thoughts and things not belonging to me will be denoted with asterisks. Poems will be archived by the date which they were written, not by that which they were posted. I tend to update things a month or few after being written so as to keep current issues from wandering unattended around the web.
Enjoy...

“The difficulty of literature is not to write, but to write what you mean; not to affect your reader, but to affect him precisely as you wish.”
