I think you like to keep me guessing
throw me a line and I dive right in
like always
searching for the bait on the end of the hook
running for the first thing that looks like affection
feels more like rejection
this cat and mouse game
one day I'm soaring above heaven's door
the next, nowhere
it's the same old song
same old dream
you'd think by now, I'd be a bit wiser
having noticed these sign posts before
but I keep hoping, I guess
pressing my way
the truth is too harsh to bear
I simply look the other way
although I've known it all along
and I won't say it here
except to acknowledge
I understand
always have
these delusions in spite of illusions ....

Intricately woven and wonderfully presented thoughts on the
complexities of love and relationships. An underlying sadness
prevails.

Love this poem, it's clear on meaning and excellently expressed. I
thought the flow of the poem worked well and it's easy to identify
with.
Overall - brilliant, one of my favourites.

Really amazing, made me a bit sad but it's ok because I still loved it
after. Keep writing.

While reading your poem, some mental images were created in my mind,
those images were highly inducing. Since your poem influenced me so
much , as to make a mental imagery, I give top ratings to it.
