TORMENT…ED


 


Of late I find I am ignorant,


I find myself to rave and rant,


Only to be stepped on like an ant,


This is what I get for speaking what I feel,


Trying to be myself, trying to be real…


 


Would I do better to only write of daisies?


Of daffodils and lilies and roses so fair,


Of ocean scenes and to the gods prayer,


Would I be happy doing this or would I break down and swear…?


 


Should I change for one, or continue to be myself just for fun?


Try to be humorous, allowing my thoughts to amuck run,


Writing of the stupidity of others, hoping one in particular never becomes a mother…


 


I really cannot change, not for one, not for all,


So if I were you honey, I would get myself a box of tissues,


To wipe away the sweat off of your brow, and any tears of frustration,


For if it were up to me, I would have to say in all honesty,


You seem to have more personal issues than Playboy has back issues…

Perfectly, My Dear. (As one old guy summed up his survival of 82 years of marriage). Now that you got it out, blow it off. Keep trying and learning and someday the witch with issues will be gone.

Oh just be yourself and who ever does not like you the way you are let them piss off and leave you alone....me says!!

Every person has the right to write and feel what ever he or she likes....and if they cannot deal with it...I say they are the ones with the real problem.....right???

Love what ever you write my friend!!

Love Tinka

You shouldn't change who and what you are for one, or for a thousand, my friend - we all need to just be who we are.

PS Many spouses think the above rule does not apply to marriage, but even there, to thy self be true.

Listen to George here, Eddie M... you have a voice like none other in all of AD-dom and that makes you special, if not down-right famous!

Never overreact to the idiots... they expose their lack of brains and humanity all by themselves, everytime they open their mouths, spewing from their narrow-minded brains. This, too, shall pass. Carry on... change nothing! katy xox

To thine own self be true, and to hell with the few who don't agree with you. LOL

Ed. Women. To me. A woman is a treasure beyond what I can deal with. But I have not allowed a lot of women in my life at all. I can sympathize, bro; if that's the way you go. Love and peace. Regis
