Array ( [sid] => 12689 [catid] => 1 [aid] => Mick [title] => you can't fool me [time] => 2003-02-15 20:00:00 [hometext] => [bodytext] => you can't fool me
i've been there before
we're going to go rounds
let's settle the score

bloodshot eyes
peeking from under a hood
i know what you're doing
you knew that i would

lessons not learned
chances not taken
i know you're hurting inside
but this behavior cannot be mistaken

think you can get
away with this crap
think you can play
and go take a nap

i tire of these games
this play you have acted
promises get old
they can't be retracted

grow up little girl
step up to the plate
if you keep on this way
you'll seal your fate

who'll be there to blame
when you're out on your own
you'll take the fall
your true self has been shown [comments] => 5 [counter] => 198 [topic] => 6 [informant] => LadyDama [notes] => [ihome] => 0 [alanguage] => english [acomm] => 0 [haspoll] => 0 [pollID] => 0 [score] => 0 [ratings] => 0 [editpoem] => 1 [associated] => [topicname] => AngryPoetry )

yes, you are very right... these are words i feel but do not speak to her, as i know she is still a child... i have cared for her for 4 years... and her mother passed away last october, so i try to just be there for her... it has been a very rough road, as she has a lot of problems with lying... but everyday is a new day... i try to hug her often... ... thank you for your comments, thay ARE appreciated...

LD
This is a world
vividly drawn
one I know not
wretched and torn
When the coastline
is all rocks galore
it's terribly hard
gettng ashore

for every day's a struggle

but everyday has it's blessings
for this i'll make that struggle...
