No,
I gotta stop.
Stop.
Stop.
Stop.
To stab,
your knife,
straight,
into my heart.
Can’t,
can’t take,
what your memory,
does to me.
No,
I gotta stop.
Stop.
Stop.
Stop.
To look for you,
’cause I can’t,
I can’t have you,
anymore.
So,
you gotta stop.
Stop.
Stop.
Stop.
Haunting me,
taunting me,
hurting me,
please, baby stop.
Oh,
oh, can’t you see?
All your wounds,
on my chest, how much they bleed?
No,
I gotta stop.
Stop.
Stop.
Stop.
To take you with me,
to carry you everywhere I go,
before you drain my heart,
before I fall apart.
No,
I gotta stop.
Stop.
Stop.
Stop.

Yes it would. You would be writing quite a different poem. So was it another girl you were writing about?

I wrote it down already. Yes, I’d be happy to do so. Sounds great!
I’ve created another blog to write a little about my traveling experiences in China. This blog is still in its “experimental” phase, but I’d be happy to share it with you and send you a link via email. 🙂

Please do send the link. I hear and I have seen pictures of China that are so beautiful. I can do without the smog in big cities that look like fogs with everyone covering their mouths while walking in this. I would just move. Look forward to your blog.

I should state that my keyboard is sometimes playing up and that Ts in particular are a problem. My comment should have read *this comment* not *his* 😦
I guess it’s in keeping with the thread of conversation though, the mix of genres 😉
Wow! Incredible? Thank you for making feel good!
Let me send more hugs then 😉
