Array ( [sid] => 31526 [catid] => 1 [aid] => mick [title] => Rogue Magnet No More [time] => 2004-01-12 22:26:09 [hometext] => This poem sums up my transformation-in-progress from dating every guy that payed attention to me to an independent girl with more confidence. [bodytext] => I've made a mistake.
Could you blame me
for trying to make a friend?
I attract scheming flies,
because I'm the honey.
What you're looking for
isn't in me,
but it's not my fault.
I'm still young.
One day I'll grow out of it,
clinging to everyone that looks my way.
I'm a good girl,
but put the handcuffs on me anyway.
At least my legs are free.
I'll run from the darkness
and soak up the sun.
I have to look from the crowd
and into a mirror
before I lose sight of myself.
I want to lose sight of the man
carrying heavy weights into my life.
And when I write a letter
telling the next loser goodbye,
I'll sign it: Sincerely,

I liked this. I can understand it pretty well... Granted from the opposite side. I think it was well written. Nice.

Poetry is much like a great photo, a single "moment in time" capturing many feelings and emotions. Yet, they are very alive; creating stirrings within the readers who form visual "pictures" of the expressed emotions within the Poem. ©
