if --

a little ponder

If I lie here long
enough
I will convince myself
I do not love you
long enough
to get out of bed.

I hate getting out of bed regardless but if I had someone very very special with me well...
I could stay for days. :) I did read this before I believe.

Probably, or a similar sentiment. I had only begun to keep my poems together at that point.

You know you truly still love somebody when you have to try and convince yourself you don't.....

Thank you for stopping in and reviewing.

Is it because you don't want to leave him?
Or because he's already gone. Your double meanings are fricking killing me!!
Mad poets society...

[Lyn Anderson]

Well, that you just have to keep on guessing ... Actually, Lydi's interpretation was pretty close ...

[Matching Socks]

Awww, look at you all sweet and mushy for a change. :)

reminds me of a rod stewart song

I suppose it would, I guess being a kid in the seventies made some flashbacks ...

if I stay here long enough I will convince my self and that's all I recall

That's very cute.....had to think about it. You never want to leave the side of the one you love, do you? Hard to convince yourself it is time to get out of bed. I liked it. Lydi**
