Array ( [sid] => 126938 [catid] => 1 [aid] => mick [title] => Perfect Strangers [time] => 2006-10-15 01:00:38 [hometext] => Wrote this when I was 13 and in love... [bodytext] => Why is it that who I love can never be mine?
Is this lonely loveless life the eternal fine?
Why can’t I be like others, why do I bleed?
Is it fair when others get what they need?

Of mankind, I never wanted to be so unique
Only admired this round rosy cheek
Wished for a hug, a kiss-the perfect treat
Dreamt of feeding from a smile, so sweet

They say I’m a dreamer, we’re not meant to be
Yet I saw what ordinary eyes don’t see
The soul’s glow and purity, the soft skin, the hair
The innocence, the satisfaction, the flair

I would sacrifice it all, true love is so rare
Were this dream reality, the Gods I would dare
But now I reflect gloomily and think of my fate
Can all the forces of the universe the truth annihilate?

In another world, could we be one?
Could we restart although we have not yet begun?
Cause if there is no more chance but a cheap lie…
If I can never have you…then let me die!

A very deep poem for teenage angst, it's all rather a long time ago now, for me, but reading your poem brought back some of the insecurities I had in those days.

Just a question, what happened in the end ?, any luck, or is this the one that got away?

I had thoughts kind of like this
in my younger days though I
never expressed them quite
so well as you seem to have.
Really good for 13 I think.
Take care , Truly , Doug
