Dedicated to all those of you who don't take the time to care

I've been struggling with the fact lately that I know I'm going to have to give up some of the people I know from high school when I go to college just because I won't have the time to email and call them. I just wish that some of them wouldn't make it so easy for me. I guess it's this transition between one life and the next. It's a problem of substance, I guess. They know where to find me, what my number is. They can send a quick email or meet me at the mall for a movie. They just choose not to because they have more important things going on.


I finally figured it out the other day.

You see, I've had this troubled mind,
for a while now, it's been bugging me
I see these people, I talk to them, I try
to be the person I was nigh 2 months ago.

Too bad that's not the case, I'm out of there
why bother with him,
why go on and sit around, sit and waste
your time with a guy you'll never see again?

You don't really make or break me,
I just feel so alone in this part of isolation,
you never give me a call, or even read
my poetry, it's not that simple anymore.

I still love you, but it seems so empty,
in front of this glowing computer screen.
Hell, I think I'll just sigh here sadly,
and then go to bed and tuck myself in.

I expected you to move on.
I guess I just didn't expect it to be that quick.

Hi Beebes, I know what you mean, I have little / no expectations of people to keep in touch with me. I'm less disappointed that way. Also, I make sure that if I want contact, then I initiate it. Sorry you sound so let down. Been there too, keep writing , Shalom

Thanks for the encouraging words. I can use them now.

Confusion among the masses! Well, at least me, anyway. Just letting me know you read my work, or is there some greater significance behind this profound statement?

Peace,

Hey, Al...don't worry, I'll never forget you. I'll try to keep in contact while I can...I've been a bit busy lately, but things are slowing down again.

Good poem,

I just miss you guys. I'll be ok, I guess.

I haven't forgot you, and I never will. I won't move on b.c I don't want to face what is in front of me now, I am not ready to. I don't when I will face it. Things have been very rough these past few weeks, I am still struggling more than I want to. I know you have been going through a lot to and I am sorry I haven't been there to listen and talk to you. I will keep praying and hope everything will get better.
