Unfair ( A Juggler's Jinx)

She said she had
Too many balls in
The air that she
Was juggling
She admitted
She was struggling
I knew right there
How much she
Cared
That she would rather
Drop me now
So the rest
Could be spared?
Sometime priorities
Aren't fair?

Rico, Sometimes it may seem like all of life is a juggling act, and within our rush-rush culture too many balls in the air seems to be the norm rather than the exception. The juggling theme is the jumping off point to tell of an uncertain relationship....will you stay in the air or will you be dropped? This piece poses some important questions, leaving the reader to decide the answers. Great write, Rico. take care...dan

nice metaphor used here...love is a juggling act sometimes.
did you mean "too many balls in the air"?
and maybe "she admitted" would be smoother.

but a very interesting concept...

Fixed the typos and used your suggestions, thanks Jacob

Hopefully the juggler will merely throw you up a little higher so it takes a while for you to get back down. Not dropped, merely not caught for a bit. :(

I am use to being dropped by humans but never by God....he catches me when no one else can or will....
