I Sent You a Message.

A Poem by Randall
"

Conversation.

"

 I sent you a message, it went like this. (?) 

Your message back, (yes) 

My message to you, (I need to see you.) 

Yours to me, (why?) 

Mine to you, (Because I love you.) 

Yours to me, (you know I love another.) 

Mine to you, (yes, I know.)   

Your message to me, (I suppose you can stop.) 

My message to you, (I promise this will be the last time.) 

Yours to me, (Why?)  

Mine to you, (Because I love you, because you don’t love me.) 

Your message to me, (Why don’t you let me decide if I love you.) 

My message to you, (Because love doesn’t happen that way.) 

Yours to me, (I can decide if I want to love you). 

Mine to you, (No, love just happens, it's not contrived or decided upon.)

Your message to me, (Oh, well, I’ve decided not to love you.) 

My message to you, (I still want to see you one last time.) 

Yours to me, (Why?) 

Mine to you, (Look, Michelle, because I love you.) 

Your message to me, (My name isn’t Michelle, it’s Mary.) 

Mine to you, (What? Your number is 471-3750.) 

Yours to me, (No, it’s 471-3751.) 

My message to you, (Mary, can I come over and see you for the first time?) 

Your message to me, (Yes, I would like that. What's your name?)   

Mine to you, (Daniel, Mary, I need your address.) 

Yours to me, (Daniel, it’s 1341 South Lincoln St., Casper Wyoming.) 

My message to you, (Mary, will you wait? I’m driving from Chicago.) 

Your message to me, (Yes, I’ll wait, and Daniel, I think you're right, love just happens.)

Hi Randalls,
It was a conversation, i liked the variety you like to make, i too try different ways of expressing it but i look for different rhythm and also content. Is it that you write same story , byt for me if you write same story, you doent want to change the clocks hand, just stay where they are... for everyone it looks good, people doesnt age, but for me i dont need to, i am eqyally moving with my man, and it doesn tmatter to look young nor neither keep the same pleasure, i see so many things in life, like how different countries make food with different spices, but i see rice and salt and sugar has never changed or different in country and bitterness or spiceness are different over the countires, i feel mind, soul has never changed but body changes, that is blend of human make, rice salt, sugar....

Enjoy life in every nook it takes, time changes but never stops.

Jessy Jacob.
thank you for sharing nice lines of conversation...........

Do you blame yourself for being a devil dog?

Wow, a big mistake there, knew something like that would eventually happen....all that wasted time back and forth....then the wrong person....but love happens and I think this will be a happy ending, let's hope so!
Nice!!!!
Warmly, B
