she's just fine

one missed phonecall
who is it?
a moment of total black-out
why now?

she thought she'd finally gotten over him
he is no good
he is going to jail
he thinks she's beautiful
he will make her fall
he is in town

would you like to have a cup of coffee?
sure.
a moment of lost self-control
why?!

she tells herself this is the best thing to do
eliminate his element of surprise
she's listening to his stories
he lives a mad life
he is no good
he knows exactly how to look at her
he thouches her hand, her knee
he tells the same stories as before

suddenly she knows
he will always be there
in her diary
in her phone
in her memories; good and bad
that's it

she isn't the same girl she was years ago
he, he has not changed
too bad for him

she's just fine.

    oh scary... 40000 morbidly obese christians wearing fanny packs invading europe is probably the least scariest thing since I watched an edited version of The Care Bears movie in an extremely brightly lit cinema.

    As I was reading, I feared she was going to give into his advances, but I was relieved to find that she came to her senses. Yeah, sounds as if she is indeed, just fine!!! :)

    "Hello eMMI-loo, goodbye heart,
    sweet eMMI-loo, I'm so in love with you.
    I knew eMMI-loo, we'd never part,
    so hello eMMI-loo, goodbye heart"

    that's okay, no harm done. :D

    silly's good. better than boring. :)
    I feel being silly sometimes and when my friends don't feel the same way.. what can you do.
    but I still like being silly and I like people who are silly. :)

    so consider yourself officially liked! :)

    And don't forget the red vinyl eye patch for the left eye!! You don't want to be blind in one eye and unable to see out the other. One must protect themselves whilst painting with jam! ;):p For that matter, please also remember to wear the rubber gloves covered with petroleum jelly--don't want any chaffing!! :D

    Good read eMMI...this thread was cute, it made me smile... :)
    Our love must not be just words, but True Love, which shows itself in action,
    No one needs a smile more than someone who fails to give one,
    After you die...you know how to LIVE!

    this really made me think of things from my past, and somebody close to me.

    great piece!
    The only thing I enjoy is having no feelings....being numb rocks!

    And I won't make the same mistakes

    Because I know how much time that wastes

    now who is being the silly one.... :rolleyes: ...... you never, ever mix jam. It contravenes the Innsbruck Jam Treaty of 1800.... more commonly know as the 6 'o' clock treaty.

    I will be using a special jam made of snozzberries.... courtesy of an Oompa-Loompah I found at a garage.... although he was very drunk and had a briefcase full of muffins.... but i believe him.


    ever tried to get jam out of a brush??? tres difficile.... and tiny spanners are hard to come by, so i changed my mind and used mummified grasshoppers :confused:

    oh I'm sorry, I haven't really updated my knowledge about using jams as house paint. :o lol.

    were the muffins good? or did you try them at all? is there some kind of rule regarding muffins found from drunken Oompa-Loompahs? :D
    it's good to believe Oompa-Loompahs, no need to upset them.

    I've never tried that.. (see my first comment on this post) but I believe you. :D
    mummified grasshoppers? good choice! :p
