    Don't Play That Song Again

    Here I am at a get together. Everything is going
    fine. I thought I was late getting here, but seems
    I am on time.

    The D.J. plays a song and I am taken a-back. Anything,
    but this song, tell me why did he do that?

    This song creates too many memories of a love I once
    had. Like a time machine here I am visiting my own
    past.

    There she is in a beautiful dress, the love of my
    life is adorned. I'm telling her, "When your mother
    gave birth to you, my love, a star was born."

    She's telling me, "You are my sun, my moon, my stars
    and my whole world. This is so wonderful! I am so
    blessed to have you call me your girl."

    Now I see me putting a promise ring on her finger.
    She's now crying, by not only this, but by the
    words of the song from singer.

    Standing there and seeing this, I am frozen in time.
    Tears falling down, saying to myself, "This girl was
    once mine."

    The song is now over and I snap back into reality.
    People are staring, pointing, looking, asking what's
    wrong with me.

    Oh I am okay, I was taken a-back just then. I just
    have one request D.J., "Don't play that song again."

    Gotta say I just love it love it love it!....Of course dont love the hurt that you are feeling at a familiar song that brings you memories of a long lost love, but I do share a kin ship in that I understand. You extend yourself to be so open, and vunerable and honest with your readers... You truly wear you emotion on your sleave and you are a better poet because of it... Great Read...

    When power leads man towards arrogance, poetry reminds him of his limitations. When power narrows the area of man's concern, poetry reminds him of the richness and diversity of existence. When power corrupts, poetry cleanses.

    John F. Kennedy (1917-1963) Thirty-fifth President of the USA
