Lorna

Did I do this

Did I do that

When in the cafe 

We both sat

 

I didn't smile

I smiled too much

Looked serious

Seemed too stuck up

 

Too anxious 

For your company

Or too much talking

About me

 

I laughed out loud

Was that too much

No gravitas

Perhaps in such

 

You wish me ill

You wish me well

In truth I honestly

Can't tell

 

It's easier by far I feel

To stay at home and cook a meal

    Great poem Lorna. Just be yourself, judging from the way you write, you are one heck of a lady and don't need to worry about anything you do. If he does not like it....his loss!

  • Lorna

    It's not "him" - It's "everyone"! ha ha. I do try to laugh at myself - this is definitely regressive behavior! Should add that I was with the man I chose because it didn't matter to him what I did! Bridget Jones: I like you just the way you are!

            A great write, Lorna!
            I can relate to what
            you wrote! Wondering
            and questioning myself...
            ...many years ago. No longer necessary...I’m glad to say! Enjoyed the read! Enjoy your day!
