i don't know… been very busy. yesterday i was housesitting and being away from home, started thinking about myself. the sudden urge to write down a deluge on the subject of help mate, as they call a life enhancing relationship with the opposite sex….
so these thoughts came out like this.
someone to laugh and cry with
i laugh alone now
as you do
two souls on a bridge
to nowhere.
here's to a dry tear
lonely nights
and haggard dreams
of you.
you are my angel
of hope
my most secret wish
i am yours; your knight errant.
where are you now?

awwwwwwww meli this is a very sweetpoem and a heart felt! I hope you find her one of these days meli,and you share happiness,the ups and downs of life,and many dreams for the years to come!
Even apples taste better when shared, don't they, Scott?Nice poem.:smile:
me too meli :heart: maybe though… it may be too late for that. just working with my illusions. :cool:stardancer,yes that's the point… one has a need to share. 🙂
very sane advice. mar, i will follow it. :cool:i'm glad you found your proper complement in a man. that's so great.
My last 'disappointment' six years ago at least made me realize how I wanted 'my man' to be – and also that such a person couldn't possibly exist. Which is why I then decided, honestly and seriously, to give up searching and enjoy my life.Guess what happened? The NEXT day I met my complementary half – he was, and still is, exactly how I thought he should be :king: & :queen: So, instead of the usual 'Don't give it up', I recommend 'Stop trying' 😎 :wine:

Looking at it this way also keeps us from quarreling about who is the better half 😉 😀
Vaia did read the poem and said "this is nice, I like it!" and she loved the lines, "…two souls on a bridge to nowhere."
:awww: but very nice!
Nice words and… scary knife 😮
put me down for loving 'a dry tear.' and these comments are great. i'm almost convinced to give away my blow-up doll and hope for a real lover. :troll:

yes. but don't even think like that. that damn genius brain (it thinks) of ours, all it can do is compare and criticize. all to support the starved ego.
It's hard 2 be alone :heart: Al my best wishes from Denmark :heart:

according to my personal experience, that's a precondition for getting what you are looking for, no matter if it's four-leaved clover, the ideal job, or the love of your life 😀 :spock:
Everything fits so well together…love it. 🙂

funny you should mention the four leaf clover because just a week ago i said that i had been looking for one that day.i found one when i was five. then i found one when i was twenty.Originally posted by angel292005:
thanks sarah for getting it so well.
😉
Beautiful, thoughtful, and heartfelt poem. I hope you find your someone to laugh and cry with. She will be a very happy woman indeed, with you by her side.
hi lea, no comment?thanks annette for dropping in and the nice words…. yeah. :happy:
you understand perfectly.not everyone has this need to share… it is a gift; and a powerful good one too.oh, i agree totally about sharing on the net; and relationships are as real as those i have in 'concrete' existence. we are still beings relating to each other. the only thing missing is the body. :idea:thanks for commenting.
This post made me cry.It's a big fear of mine to lose someone I love.I've lived alone and I've lived with people I love.Sharing is so special.The greatest thing in the world is to see or experience something, then turn to the person you love and say did you see that etc.I'm involved with more then one person and I needthem all. With each I share different parts of my life.Recently I fell in love with someone on the net.I didn't think it was possible. It is, believe me.We had problems and the person left.I was so used to sharing stuff I found on the net. And I couldn't anymore.Yesterday the person came back and we're sharing again.It isn't always easy to find someone in real life,too much baggage.Try the net you might be surprised.aaron (from a nice place to be)
I was just sharing!
yes, and your heart on your sleeve too. 😆
You're very human, you get through my defenses too easily.

the main point is that sharing is not a weakness, it's a strength.i remember how when watching "titanic" again at home, i suddenly understood something deep about that. when jack and rose are on the bow of the ship and the porpoises are escorting them… jack keeps pointing and saying "did you see that?", "look there…" as if she wasn't right there seeing the same thing already.artists are like that. well, and poets and actors and especially musicians. unconsciously maybe, but they are opening hearts. this way they serve a higher purpose. i think so anyway.
I don't think sharing is a weakness.My defenses are to keep me from being hurt mainly.Social defenses really.Guys shouldn't cry in public.Don't know if you were like this before, or you've become this way since your loss.I'm mainly used to dealing with robot people.As I said you're very human.It is rare, for me anyways to meet it.We aren't taught to be real, pity really.My emotions are bubbling to the surface.One of the reasons I'm on the web is to do my own personal therapy.Group therapy without the group knowing it's happening.In real group therapy no one really listens to the others.So if no one comments, I'm used to it.You sent me a message, you listened.I'm shallow, as I first asked you to be a friend because of the photo you use.It fits in with most of the friends I've chosen.I go to check you out, "about" you.You're not the guy in the photo, (or it's you younger) you're 66 yrs old.I decide to read a bit further.I like what you write on your profile page.You're no longer 66 yrs old.I ask you to be a friend.
very cool. i like the way you did that. yes. we are friends already.of course i always admire anyone who does things consciously. in other words i agree about the silent therapy. i just wouldn't have quite put it like that. trying to tell about oneself honestly or objectively without worrying about what people think is eminently possible in journaling. so it becomes a means of self study. the feedback is just the gravy. 😎
