Changing the pattern

Unless a person is living her days like a machine
churning out material of the same design because
it's a fabric factory and that's the best selling material,
it seems like a good idea to do something else once
the pattern has been firmly established!
How many days does it take to convince
a man you always love him?
I'm sure I've passed the number!
I'm sure I've sent enough telegrams
I'm sure I've sent enough flowers
I'm sure I've been kind enough
dreamy enough
warm enough
and reliable enough!
so it's not a matter of lack of love
it's a matter of doing it his way or
not doing it at all
with no discussion allowed!
and since his suggestion leaves me displaced
with no home
and no prospect of a home with him either
why isn't running away from a trap like this a good option?
call it suicide
call it sad
call it practical!
but the only options he's ever vaguely suggested
don't seem healthy to me

A lifetime passes and your man is in that bed.
You are there but your attention isn't
that's what I see. divine forgiveness, faxed directly into a waiting recycle bin.
My feelings are despondent, right now. (thanks ladies)
some are given it all...only to be molded into a beer
coaster for Sunday football.
You, are deserving something more.
Thanks for the feelings
To quote Aafke "feeling is healing"
What a motive...gets me going.

F'n right.
The Land of Nowhere is a place where nothing really happens, and nothing much changes, and the only truth is that it keeps one from living Outside and Elsewhere. That's how it's a drain.
I don't like the view that anyone is a victim though. I have never considered myself a victim, ever, and I don't consider other people villains!! People are people. We all make mistakes. I make mistakes and I accept that others do too.
It's just that I don't want to live with it anymore!
I think I understand what you mean, justjam. I don't see anyone as a victim or villain either. In my "last Kiss" it wasn't my intention to blame anyone, just to describe my feelings over what had happened. We all do make mistakes because we're humans. Every human has choices in how to deal with things. My choice has long been to shut up over what had happened. I kept it all to myself.. that wasn't healthy, so I just decided to speak out, not with the intention to make a victim out off myself, but to heal myself. Because just as justjam i didn't want to live with it alone anymore. In my opinion sharing isn't the same as blaming

I wasn't a victim in my relationship which I outgrew (in a nutshell and in retrospect). It was plenty good for a long time, I got a lot, I gave a lot, I learned a lot. At the time of disbandment, it was I that was holding my leash.

I'm sorry :(
I'm sorry
But poetry...the drain to nowhere :ugeek:
comedy gold
do forgive...please. :oops:
It isn't a drain to nowhere!!!!!!!!!!
It's a drain on energy.
The place one is living is the Land of Nowhere.
Get your fucking facts straight if you're gonna laugh at my expense.
Geez.
:roll:
I was a little buzzed when I posted that regretable remark. I would also not be at all amused if someone were to make a joke about my feelings or poem. It won't happen again.
I hope you will not make a final and negative judgement about my character based on that one comment.
I see you have nearly 20, 000 posts on the 10C and I think your picture shows that you are a woman of substance, class and skill. I would like very much to be in your good graces.
I'm truly sorry for offending you.

Sorry if I came across as someone with no sense of humor. :? :geek:
