    My Demise

    It was a sunny day at the local pool
    I migh have been about fifteen
    When in walked a gal in a red bikini
    She was the most gorgeous thing I'd ever seen

    I went home that day after swimming
    but she was the only thing in my head
    I told my Dad i had met the one
    40 years later I wish I was dead


    At first we seemed like the perfet pair
    My head would swim like it had been bumped
    Now I realize we are all wrong
    That this marriage long ago should have been dumped

    So listen my friend to these words of caution
    Don't find yourself in a similar hell
    Opposite attract it really is true
    But nobody tells you ultimately they repel.

    This is so true. It is amazing we can review our thoughts and be ourselves and do not be judged

    Honest ,frank and a stinging truth to many. The painful truth of choices we make when we are young.

    thanks! So glad you liked it.

    In science one tries to tell people, in such a way as to be understood by everyone, something that no one ever knew before. But in poetry, it's the exact opposite.

    Franz Kafka (1883-1924) Czech writer.
