Deceitful Lies / Harsh Goodbyes

{ Not a Poet and I know It }

Since You've Gone Midi

 

 

Deceitful Lies / Harsh Goodbyes

You told me ~ I was your love
Sent to you from the great man above
Your Knight in shining armor
You were quite the charmer

 

 

You had dreams of me all of your life
I would come to you and make you my wife
We got married the very next year
I was thrilled that in my life ~ you were here

 

 

You were told right from the very start
That if we should somehow ever part
A burden to you I would never be
Me again you would never see

 

 

Respectfully I have kept my word
From me you have never heard
On the web sites that you call home
You will never see me roam
But why do you follow me to mine
I move on ~ time after time

 

 

From life's problems I have never run away
Stood my ground and faced them each and every day
Slowly I clime up that ladder of life
Slippery at times / a broken rung / a lost wife

 

 

WritersCafe here I have made my home
Of you I try not to moan and grown
Can you just not stay away
You follow me from site to site
I suppose you have the right
These games you know I do not play
So here on WriterCafe I think I will stay
Respectfully Your X
Ray

Author's Note

Ray Hamilton
When a man try�s his best to keep his promise and disappear
but the woman keeps following him one site to another
What is a man to do?
One can't run / move web sites forever!!

There are some nice people I have met here at WritersCafe, I have planted Roots here!!

Sadly, Ray, I can relate to this. I, too, have been stalked at this site by a former love. It's so strange. Why do they feel the need to "silently watch" and not completely let go and move on with their lives? I have closed my account, several times, out of frustration for said person. But, like you, I have decided to stay, stand my ground, and not let this bother me. We cannot control the actions of others. But, we can control how we react to their stupidity.

I like how you have put so much heart into this piece. Well written and I applaud you for your honesty!

Good for you!

My Sweet Precious Friend as I have said People do what they do because they can
Stand your ground. If she knows she can chase you off she will. Sounds to me like
someone needs to get a life and get out of yours... This as always was wonderful
and I so love reading your heart...
Hugs my Sweet

Hi Ray My Friend,

I am so glad to see this Author's Note because I would sure hate to see you move away from here. I have so enjoyed getting to know you through your great words of poetry and your absolutely wonderful wit and charm. I am just getting to know you and you are someone that has brought to me much needed smiles. Don't you dare move on!

Blessings,
Lesa

I suppose some people have a harder time getting past things than others. It's a shame. I'm enjoying reading your pieces...they're open and honest. And this one is no less so. Nice work!

I have known a few like this, myself. No, we can't keep running from one place to the other.

So glad you are here Ray, and I love the way you told the whole story of your life and your previous love throughout. I love the music and again the backgrounds really add to your writes. You are quite adept at the computer. I am still just learning, but anyway....enjoyed your little story.

If she follows you to every site you have been on you have to begin to wonder why she left you in the first place? Doesn't make a whole lot of sense...

Smiles, Carole
