You imagine
what he’ll say,
what he’ll do.
You see the words
floating past his lips,
hear his voice
echoing lines that you wrote,
the ones your own mind created,
and it’s then you realize
that it’s all just your own story,
the one you’re writing
in your head,
the one you hope
will start to come true,
but it never does.
It was never meant to be real.
~ Patience
That, is why you should never put all your emotions into a relationship at the start of finding someone, instead, you should observe the person you love, see how he interacts with his famies, friends, even strangers.

I have no idea how Freshly Pressed works, so I typed it in my reader to see what I’d get. Your blog wasn’t that far down the line 🙂 I have no idea what that means. I love finding other poetry blogs 🙂 You write beautifully btw 🙂

Thank you! I was published there 4 years ago, so I tag my posts with it. Maybe that’s why. Who knows, but I’m glad it helped you find me. And thank you! I’m glad you like my stuff. 🙂
