Array ( [sid] => 125566 [catid] => 1 [aid] => mick [title] => Four Reasons [time] => 2006-09-10 11:52:09 [hometext] => I wrote this whilst i was walking my dog on my mobile phone, as i had sudden inspiration in a field :) [bodytext] => The first is the things u said to me,
The second is the way you set me free.
The third is the way you made me feel,
The last is the reason I am here still.

Ill start with the first,
The things that you “say”,
Without these words,
Things wouldn’t be this way.

The way that you set me free,
Is the worst reason of the four,
Because you never will,
And you never did before.

The third - the way u make me feel,
Is really not a reason at all,
Because everything you put me through,
Takes me one step closer to fall.

The fourth and final reason,
Keeps me sitting here right now,
Because I cannot leave you,
And I really don’t know how.

Four reasons that I love you,
None of them make sense,
So maybe I should walk away,
And leave your lonely bench.

But it’s really not that easy,
Now you’re no longer brave,
It’s the hardest thing to say goodbye,
When you’re staring at a grave.

That was so realistic. And maybe true in some situations. A very well written piece. Thanks for sharing. Sue x

Wow,

Very nice job... I started thinking this was about abuse of
a woman and a dead beat guy...
I liked the twist... I found myself angry at the
guy and WOW... Nice job... Good work... let's have more
