(in one respect, anyway) [ib-3@juno.com (names ] ET: just a thought ["Christie Ambert" ] ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Date: Sun, 5 Jul 1998 01:18:50 -0500 From: ib-3@juno.com (names are superfluous and irrelevant) Subject: ET: ...living on my own. (in one respect, anyway) So, here's my excuse: up until today (well, yesterday, seeing as how it's 12:03) I had written nothing for nearly a straight week, and I've been on three blind dates that turned out wonderfully...all in the space of time in which the girl I'm supposed to love was camping with her family! AHHHH!!! I hate being such a pimp. ;) Anyway, enough about my circumstances, I figure that I would tell all of you patriotic americans that you should be patriotic humans on this day. It's odd how this ended up...today, independence day, I basically just grabbed my spiral bound sheets of paper (my poetry notebook), a pen, a book, and left my house for a couple of hours...with the soul (not sole) intention of writing. Anyway, here's the raw, unedited (as always), poetry that came out of the fifteen minutes that I actually spent writing. HI NAOMI! HI JAMIE THAT NEVER WRITES ME! hello sam, even though you don't want to hear it! [][][][][] There's no proof that you even exist let alone that you care It could just be that i'm imagining being with you every day and talking to you every night You could just be something I drempt up in a long-distance car ride or some I imagined was sitting next to me at a movie theatre or laying next to me in bed at night Existance or not, I love you I love the idea of you I fear you leaving I fear you disapearing I'm lying here dead but I'm breathing I'm dreaming of you. [][][][][] _my_ LIFE It's not really poetry but it sounds good to say so It's not really happiness but it feels good to think so You'll say it wasn't meant to be this way and I miss you You say it's really good right now cause I have you You said I wish it were that way cause I want you [][][][][] Rose petals linger on forever always in visual contact but always to far away to grasp in the eye of my mind from my point of view i miss you you're sitting next to me and i miss you i miss the way you turn overcast clouds into a sun shiny day and i miss you but i've got front row tickets to a show i'd never recommend for you and you'll hate me for what i've done in my sould and my heart and then my mind i fell in love with you and I miss you [][][][][] Dead before you were born rebel in a revolution that's already passed i was lying there dead and you made me breathe again I was lying there in love and forgot to breathe again i would highly recommend these to tickets to the end of my world absent forgiveness for the presence of my sin i'm having so much fun that i fogot to love you along the way and not i miss you and i'm so rry [][][][][] Independence Day, 1998. I don't feel very strong. [][][][][] Approach love with reckless abandon.
