An Oasis in a Desert.
Caring dove said:
hello a, pott..
i really love this .. the contrast of highs and lows are made very clear here.. they are all high on alcohol and music whilst you are clearly drowning in your own sorrow. i love the ending to this.. the guy in the room who feels just the same as you .
\'\'an oasis in a desert \'\' this is such a good line...
in a crowded room of people who are all drinking alcohol.. no wander the room seems dry.
i love this line
But the rain won\'t come and your heart sinks more.
It finds its way on down and it hits the floor.
Sinks down and hits the dirt,
it sounds to me like the situation is causing you distress and that ache for something different is causing you pain .. the rain outside of the window wont even appear and hence your heart sinks to the floor.
oh , to be the only one who is hurting , its not nice to feel alone in your hurt but at least you could relate to the guy in the back of the room

I’m sorry

Sometimes not knowing why is worse than the loss. Sometimes there is no why.
Your poem, Alex, is not only well written, but addresses something that troubles many people.

Seriously

Alex, it seems as if you wrote this poem about me, or for me. It fits so well I made it a favorite AND it will go on my wall of great poems, right beside Charles Bukowski!!!
You see, I take you seriously!!!

Crystal Clarity
FredPeyer said:
Love the twists and turns in this poem. Alex, this sounds like magic. You could have called it \'crystal ball\'. Tried to make it about myself, but you are right, it is not, it is definitely for you! Great imaginative writing!!!

Love these last two lines, Alex! And how many times does something temporary turn into something permanent!

Moon on the Ground
FredPeyer said:
While this poem is incredibly well written, well rhymed, great metaphors, I would be lying if I said I understood it. Maybe it\'s my age or my befuddled brain, but I don\'t get it!

Lovesick
FredPeyer said:
Yes, Alex, love can be terminal...at least it is in my case. It just won\'t go away! But it can also be like the common flu...a week and a few pills later you are ready for the next bug!

LOL i love your spin on this. Of course it does get better and is rarely terminal. Hope to see happier writes from you but this sure is a cute verse.

Sea & Sky
FredPeyer said:
I like your metaphor of light as maybe replacement for \'good\', Alex. Your poem makes me think that sometimes we see another person reflected in the light we shine on them, mistaking it for their own light. Once that light is not there anymore we see that person for what he/she really is.

FredPeyer said:
Alex, I have to assume you are talking about incontinence in the sense of Lack of moderation or self-control, especially related to sexual desire (Wikipedia). And believe me, NO moment will EVER come together quite the same way!
Very nicely penned, love that poem!

I like how you didn\'t have to say much to get your point across and leave a good imprint between the charcoal past and sliver lining of life. I also agree with (WHOWEARE) it was very easy to identify with. Great write \"Alex\"

Alex, well written! We keep on going in our rut simply because we are afraid to change. Great poem!

Even if
FredPeyer said:
I would call that \'love\', Alex.
Very well written, with a lot in-between the lines. Something else that came to my mind when reading was that you could also have added \'even if we don\'t talk\' or similar. Sometimes silence can be enjoyed together.
I do like the way you write, you always make me think, and I guess that is a good thing.

Don\'t open your heart to strangers, no matter what time it is.
A very intriguing, well written poem. It made me think! Thanks Alex!

Great poem, Alex. Beautifully written, with an interesting and very apt metaphor.
Sorry, but had to lol because the book Women are from Venus and Men are from Mars came to mind! :-)
