Array ( [sid] => 142271 [catid] => 1 [aid] => mick [title] => VERBAL SEX [time] => 2008-05-10 10:32:18 [hometext] => don't be disappointed, the name is misleading [bodytext] => Pent up anxiety leaks through pores
And I keep hearing of a love that is lost
I hear her say, "I love you" behind the closed door
and I remember, oh, I remember, her change in direction
As she picked up the pen and spelled it out to me
I switched my position, and then
We were over and done

Before this our love was a game
she played to play and I played to win
We stopped, then started all over again
I thought I needed her to breathe, like a pen needs the page
except glossy eyes and tears wouldn't interrupt her performance
she played to play and i played to win

nights, so quiet, all i hear is the phone
message after message of quiet obsession
pouring through the cups of regret
And me, I held onto her tight
I couldn't let go

Yet now I watch two girls come together
I find it hard to believe there is such thing as a kiss
I don't know where I am headed but i know
that everything happens for a reason
although i do feel spent

she gives me a quick hug and a glance
i know what she wants
now i stare into the mirror
find that i am still myself
i haven't gone anywhere
but who was that a year ago?

i was an undercover lover, except without the love
i played games to find meaning, now i sit all alone
and watching is now my new favorite thing
watch and you will learn
many things

I think the title is what brought people to this page, Julie. LOL!
I don't know what to say except that this poem seems to have deep meaning...
It left me speechless.
Keep up the good work, Julie! May you have luck in Love in the future!
