Damn Time Curious
one day a time should be easy
but i don't care what they say
some how or other
i'm trying to discover
why there seems to be 80 hours each day
there can't be just 24
no way, it has to be more
but i look at the clock
seems it's running back
going tock tick instead of tick tock
they say it gets easier as time goes along
that memories do surely fade away
but don't know if i'll ever find out
hell, don't know if i'll make it through one more day
everything's going in slow motion
makes the pain and misery last on
perhaps if i surf the net
somewhere or other i'd find
a new kind of anti-love potion
help get her out of my mind
for certain i'd be their best customer
buy bottles and bottles of the stuff
man, i'm really losing it
this keeping away is way too tough
guess i just better face it
it's gonna take more time
so i'll dust off my favorite love songs
pour a glass of my favorite wine
turn down the lights
remember back when
i was her's and thought she was mine

"Very nicely written, really felt the emotion drain out of your pen on this one and it was wonderfully constucted. I can relate with the way your subject feels. I tell ya, it's hard to loose someone but I heard some great advice one time, or maybe I made it up, who knows, anyway I think that it's not always going to be the person you lost that you feel for, after a grand love. No, it's not. The hurt you feel is the lonliness. The question then is this, at what point is it the lose of love you feel or the heartbreak of lonliness you feel. If it's the girl then wait a while, see what happens. If it's being lonely, then it's probably time to stop being lonely. A new and improved love may help you with that one. I say good luck to you indeed, my friend and pray the numb feelings are eventually replaced with happiness and joy. I bet you wernt exspecting so much mularky in one review but hey, you hit a soft spot." -- Mr. Polite Ice.
"interesting delivery thought it was very well done some real good lines in the early part of this ,loved the clock refrence have a great evening" -- fh, canada.
"Seems you have to much time curious...wish I could steal a few of those hours from you. I read most of your old stuff, these aren't seeming very familiar. (My fav was the kitty one) :)" -- mattie.
"wow, not sure where to begin so i'll start in reverse. mattie, wish i could help with the time thing and send u a few of those 80 hr. days not that they're all that much fun. as for some of these poems not seeming familiar they weren't up long before i'd get in a snit and remove them. i know, childish as hell but that's me. one day i'll grow up but probably not in the real near future. always appreciate fh stopping by and commenting and as for mr ice, well thanks for all the advice, some pertinent, some not so much so but it's nice of u to offer it in any event. like your line of getting a new and improved love, make a great poem don't u think? really tempted to steal the thought - hummmm is that plagerism?" -- curious.
"Not at all, sir" -- Mr. Polite Ice.
"all this kindness is freaking me out ice, i should have thanked you for the warm remarks that started your review, guess the niceness is rubbing off. am i starting to sound a bit on the gay side?" -- curious.
"Mr. Ice is always polite, Curious. I hope your not sounding gay, save all that suave for the ladies " -- kwilt.
"I like this one, Curious. I too am familiar with the 80 hour day. They seem to become 80 day months, as well. " -- Fire Keeper.
"Love it Curious, like Mr Polite Ice I felt you'd reached in and plucked the thoughts from my heart - damn emotions - gonna start working on my anti-love potion!" -- Briony.
"thanks for the comments ppl and especially briony, thought maybe some brit boy had stolen you away, what a loss for us that would be. not wishing you bad luck mind you, just maybe for a little while longer:)" -- curious.
"Oh no, Brit boys are annoying two faced - well I might write a little rant about what I think of the last one! I'm all yours Curious! xx" -- Briony.
