Doomed to be alone (a poem)

Doomed to be alone

I put my fantasy man on a throne

Although he keeps playing mind games 

With a little help from his friends 

This feels like 6 Degrees of Separation 

He and my numerous stalkers

Take me back in time

To good times and bad

I see people from my past

Sometimes I have to take a double take

Is that who I think it is

I can’t believe my eyes

Some of you just like to look

Wishing you were the soulmate in my book

Sometimes I wonder 

Who are the people looking back at me 

Nothing more than my mental mess

Waiting for that happy ending 

I created you

But I don’t know the real you

I hope to finally meet and connect with you 

For now I lie in wait

For my man to leave his precious life and wife

And join me in mine

I know that I will be single for life

Nothing more than a figment of my imagination 

I should take him off this throne

Stuck in a strange zone

Doomed to be alone 


Trey: I have been dropping hints left and right and you call me a stalker in your poem? And where did you get that weird name Trey? Not my name! 

(Later in the evening)

Trey: We’re good

(Even later)

Trey: Why would you call me a stalker though?

Maeve: His “epic” wife and life, you mean? Trey Sanders isn’t going anywhere with you, so be forewarned!

I found a private place…


 We could go there sometime. If you could go back in time, would you go into someone’s treehouse with your partner? 

No seriously…these darn kids have been sneaking into my neighbors treehouse to do God knows what?!

Salt (A poem)

I think I’ll spend the day

Beating myself up over

Things that will never become reality 

A bit of salt in the wound.

Life in a cloud

When you live life in a cloud, it is hard to see what is missing in your life, until the sun comes shining through and the morning rain has brought to you sad memories


 

Chilling in the jacuzzi.





 Deep thoughts: Is summer really ending?
