small contribution

Not sure if this actually communicates exactly what I wanted, but it is very hard to put what I'm feeling into words. Anyway, just thought this community was feeling somewhat abandoned, so here is a small contribution.

Oops, sorry. Didn't notice this on my friends page til just now.

And as for the poem, I'm not quite sure what you were trying to say either, but it is still very good. I've noticed that all of your stuff is very emotive, it's really good. I mean, aside from managing to engage and really let us see for ourselves what the poem s[eaks of, it also ties all your work together with a really strong stylistic trademark.

So overall, I give a thumbs up. Plus because you're carrying on the standard of free verse. :)

I gotta say, it's hard work single handedly carrying on the standard of free verse, but someone's gotta do it..! thanks so much for the compliment; i guess it doesn't matter if you know what i'm trying to say, as long as it says something to *you* - if that makes any sense... anyway, if you'd like an explanation, scroll down to my other reply...!!

Can we get a background? Because I love this so much and would like to understand it. May I link/quote it?

well, it seems sort of contradictive to the nature of poetry to explain the poem...! but basically it's about being in this relationship that i thought was getting serious, just because of the way he touched me, and kissed me, and the incredibly unnerving way he looked at me... But when i ASKED him, outright, if he thought this relationship was more than just physical, all he could say was, 'I don't know.' And it almost brought the whole thing crumbling down. But then I figured I couldn't just ignore the signs... so as long as we don't talk about it, i'm satisfied. does that make more sense?
and course you can link/quote it, i'm very flattered you asked!!
