Despite..

by deepali

Then there was this you
re-entering my life
out of the blue
and I thought
it was
the most
wonderful feeling
wished
it would continue
wanted
to hold on
only to the feeling
and not you

annoyed
to have waited
for so long
for someone like you
but I did
yes I did
despite of you
I mean
despite you
or rather
in spite of you
oh forget it
whatever..

~deepali

i know this is about as angry as you get in public ali. you don't rant and swear and scream like me. this is the old poem isn't it? it has so much frustration running through it - paul.

    I really appreciate your comment, buddy! It's difficult to say something on such angry poems.
    Wrote this around first week of June. We've these moments and then we got to move ahead.
    warmest wishes,

    Edges of relations and emotions are too killing. Think it's better to swim and drown than to sit on the edge... Well, we can win the world but our own heart is beyond us.
    Thanks a ton, my friend!
    warmest wishes,
    D.

as I read this imaginative and expressive poem I thought of another song called Reason to Believe...

and still I look to find a reason to believe
someone like you makes it hard to live
without somebody else

excellent write my friend.

    I was a bit unsure about this poem, but the positive response in the forum was heartening.
    Thanks so much for helping me improvise the poem.
    warmest wishes,
    D.

G'day deepali...
Revisiting the past can freshen up old habits I guess deepali... and those old habits are maybe the catylist why the revisiting has come about.
Thank you deepali

    Some fun at my own annoyance led to this poem. Maybe a bit of frustration out of revisiting, too!

    Thanks a million, friend!!
    warm wishes,
    D.
