Tears freely flowing,
But yet none come.
Guess the old saying's true,*
Except now it's two.
Not one.
One her, one him
How did things go so wrong?
Will they ever be right?
Will they ever be normal?
Were we ever normal?
Hurt
Pain
Betrayal
Emotions Rampant
What happens now?
Where do we go from here?
Changes
Friends or more
I'm so unsure
I know what I feel
Nothing more
Nothing less
What to do?
How to go?
That I do not know.
"Tell me know
Tell me true
Cuz I really do love you"^
Dogs drool, slobber, and bite, but not me.
I am kind and gentle, as you can see.
I don't bite or bark excessively.
People tell me that I'm as friendly as can be.
People say I am smart and intelligent, just like Lassie
A good role model indeed
Loyal and true, always there for you
As all my friends would say.
They'd also tell you that I'm generous too
Always willing to lend a helping hand (or paw)
I am a Collie, proud and tall.
Always waiting
Always the outcast
Waiting for the sign
To step forward and embrace
But it never comes
Not now
Not ever
Made to wait
Always the outcast
Never the accepted
Alone
Waiting
Watching
Waiting
The sign will never come
The outcast remains the outcast
Then
Now
Always
Waiting
Waiting in the wings
There she stands
Just out of sight
No one can see her
Except the players
Waiting in the wings
With forgotten lines
And words of comfort
With needle and thread
To mend the tears and rips
Waiting in the wings
Always there
Waiting to be called upon
Invisible to all
Forgotten till needed
Waiting in the wings
Until the final curtain
There she waits
Till the last player leaves
Only to move on
To some new play
Tears freely flowing,
But yet none come.

She's Like the Wind
She's like the wind,
Always going and coming,
Mostly going.
She brings whispers of giggles and smiles
And then quickly flees,
Leaving in her wake melancholy.
She's like the wind,
Always teasing with a hint of happiness.
Gentle breezes carry a whisper of a quiet giggle,
Never more, never less,
Until the storm blows in.
She's like the wind,
Building into a storm,
Bringing raging winds of laughter and fun,
Like a whirlwind of a hurricane or tornado.
She's like the wind.
Then she fades away,
Leaving a wake of destruction and despair.
Sometimes I Wonder
Sometimes I wonder
If I'm an obstacle
Or nuisance
Or a friend indeed?
Sometimes I wonder
If you put up with me
Because you have to
Or you want to?
Sometimes I wonder
If I'm in the way
Always there
Ever lingering?
Sometimes I wonder
Why things are
The way they are
Between all of us?
Sometimes I wonder
If it'd be better
For me to hide away
Never to be an obstacle
Sometimes I wonder
