Okay, so I’m still keeping some more of the silly verses that I came up with several years back when I was still high in love with an ex-boyfriend. I’ve had second thoughts about publishing them here because they’re too mawkish. But I figured, what am I gonna do with them now? Might as well share them with my readers even if they end up assessing me as obsessive compulsive (just a bit, really) during my romantic relationships. I refused to take a look at these silly verses for quite some time because the thought that I actually wrote them for “those morons” makes me feel like a moron (a thousand times) myself. Eew. Aside from the fact that I find them extremely corny and cheesy now. Oh well.. Maybe I should have waited for Valentine’s Day, but I simply want to send them out in the ether. Just to get it over with.
Here goes..
Fate may deny me the chance
To lay my eyes on you once more
But eternity will grant me the privilege
To keep you in my heart, for always..
**********
No star can make me gaze at the sky above
As I could only wish for a shooting star,
So rare yet spectacular,
To remind me of you..
**********
I catch every little stardust
That falls from the heavens
And I clutch them close to my heart
As they slowly spell your name..
Then I no longer seek the reasons
Why my heart could long this much..
**********
The struggle to find the love
That I could never seem to find
Illuminates the truth
In the fragment of time
When I most wanted and needed you..

These poems are wonderful. I envy the men who you long for……John H.
One of the first steps to being a really good writer is finding the courage to put yourself out there, so kudos!!

I catch every little stardust
that falls from the heavens
and I clutch them close to my heart
while they slowly spell your name.
