I arrived, spoiling for a fight,
but you weren’t there!
I knew you wouldn’t be,
but I was prepared!
I arrived, with a speech in my head,
but you weren’t there!
Didn’t really want you to be,
but I was prepared!
When the shit hit the fan for you,
not very long ago,
I feel I was there for you,
but I wasn’t prepared!
I arrived, not knowing what would be,
but you weren’t there!
I somehow knew you wouldn’t be,
but I was prepared!
Great stuff!
Thank you! Happy to see you on here! *hugs*
I’m somewhat irritated that I have to be ‘tumescentmoon’ rather than ‘John McConnochie’ to like anything though, but I’m not going to set up another WordPress account that I’ll never use for anything else. Anyway, it’s nice to see you’re on form!
I know I’ve been kind of spamming you (and anyone else who’s following this blog), but I’m just all hyped up on creativity right now… Thank you, thank you, thank you for being there, reading (even liking – doing the happy seal, clapping flippers dance) and putting up with me!!!
I like this and I like the way the ideas are flip flopped to show how annoying regret is.
Thank you… Isn’t it annoying how it’s only hindsight that is 20/20 vision? *smile*
I came unprepared
I wanted to see
See what you have
For I wanted to know
Know what you are
For the rude, crude and insult
That you gave me for mixing her
In my thoughts!!!

Well, I’m so sorry for the insult! *smile* But you did get your own back and I love the way you turned it all around! Thank you for reading and commenting (and I’ll take care not to insult again)!
so sad, well expressed.
🙂
Thank you! Happy to be part of the Rally.
I loved this! How many times have I prepared for a potentially explosive or crazy situation, only to have my bubble of anticipation popped by the failure of the other party to play? Well written!
The worst shit-storms (excuse the language) are always the ones you aren’t prepared for… Thank you for reading! *smile*
yup. i hate it when i have gloves on and the other person doesn’t even enter the ring.
Especially if you’ve gone out and bought nice, new, shiny gloves just for this game! Thank you for reading! *smile*
Great job I get myself all riled up about things that have not happened yet its really an unhealthy habit letting your thoughts snowstorm on you
I know, I know, I know… I’m working hard on not doing that, but sometimes it’s just SO hard! *smile* Thank you for reading!
If you are prepared, then you are a strong person! 🙂
This particular battle was long-overdue and I never said I wasn’t scared… Just that I was prepared! *smile* Thank you for reading and commenting!
Great poem
Best wishes
Thank you!
Fabulous write and a reminder of my husband’s ex-fianceé at the start of our relationship! Boy, was she a mental cookie!! We’re great friends now, though, but your work was well crafted in it’s entirety!
Thank you (though I hope I’m not as mad as anyone’s ex-fianceé at the beginning of their new relationship! *smile*). Thank you for reading and commenting, and making me smile with recognition!
