Well done, Neville.
They are slippery little devils though.

Moments we conceal, and choose not to reveal, but hold onto with zeal and a sly smile. Captivating my friend!

The reveal, voluntarily or otherwise, and later the resulting silent knowing, the open secret, secret still.

(eye to eye, promises
covertly playful whispers
all is fair, in craving thoughts
and imagined fantasies
till
we seek reality\'s, sensations...)
it\'s all fun n games
till drinks are involved
then tis all
\'but it meant nothing dear\'
confessions
and spilt tears over a moments
foolish choices
but then society, as whole
claps and laughs, like heartbreaks
are Christmas pantomime punchlines
and we all learn to move on
like betrayal is a pill, everyone learns to swallow
so no reason to endlessly, wallow
(erm
so maybe I\'ve still got some issue to be resolved
... maybe)
lol

Liking this N and not an e\'ermore in sight! It\'s \'alway\' that\'s a problem. Don\'t publishers realise it\'s poetic, and that poetry is, erm, poetic?! It does not always have to be \'always\'.
End of waffle or guff, or rabbiting on!

The thrill of hiding those special moments and hoping nobody else notices is expertly captured in these three beguilingly short lines - - I see that like me you like the word Covert mon ami...........................x.

What an Appetite for Attention She Had
Poetic Dan said:
Wow.. it\'s like you just plucked Real moments in my life for me to see, I\'d never be afraid to admit but one would have to asked...
This honestly was fantastic and some what ( for me) an idea of the in depth life you have lived to write the way you do.
Thanks for sharing
Much peace and respect

Pain and lies and counting plus the sense and lack thereof... a merry heady cocktail that makes life worth living.

The read of your poetic posting today hits a valuable truth my friend. - - Realizing the desperate need for attention in another and giving it willingly heals in measures we know little about and is a sign of true understanding in any relationship. The depth your expertise reaches in this verse Nev is outstanding and the piece is now in my list of favourites ........x

Doggerel Dave said:
Dunno about being someone else, but I do vainly (of course) wish I could go back and rectify those occasions where I acted less than honorably to another or made embarrassing missteps.... memories that all too frequently pop into my head at this time of my life...

Companionable empathy on this relatable poem. One for all of us who have thusly travelled in life. Thanks N.

Bella Shepard said:
My dearest friend, a different person emerges and it takes time to get to know him. Be kind to him, comfort him, take good care of him because he is well worth it, and with patience, he will find the way to forgive himself, and even love the person he is. I\'ve been there, done that, and it is a journey worth taking.

Yeh - Although a SF afficionado in the past I missed out on Hitchhiker\'s too.
BTW beyond the fond ending , which was kind and reasonable I felt, what was the cause of the ache?

Just Another Shot in The Dark
L. B. Mek said:
for me, Hyung
the saddest part
is the betrayal that lingers
long after the traumas has been overcome bravely,
that\'s what makes it so hard to trust again
because we all judge the threat levels we encounter
but when we choose to entrust our safety
to another we deem, worthy
and that\'s taken advantage of
so mercilessly
for merely seconds of depraved gratification...
it breaks our capacity to trust
those we may deem, as safe in the future
and poisons our connections with people irreversibly...
and perpetrators barely get years as sentence for such crimes
while survivors spend a lifetime dealing with it
🤬🤬🤬
(and we say \'stay safe, be aware\'
but of who, strangers?
when its the people around us
that usually plot or opportunistically
act out such despicable acts)
this is why I can never do your profession
the empath in me will end-up a vigilante mass murderer

That Last Time Look
L. B. Mek said:
(breakup\'s need to be confronted
while wearing bullet proof jackets
just like, setting sail comes with life jacket access
for those left behind...)
yeah, been there got the t-shirt
n try as I might, years later
I can\'t get that regret to wash out...
thank you! Hyung
for me this was somewhat therapeutic to read
and respond to
