La la la la... I'm Not Listening...

8/15/2014

I talk to myself and I tell me I'm fine.
I just don't listen most of the time.
I know that I know what is best for my heart.
But I can't believe that I want us apart.

I've loved you in silence,
For so many years.
All I have left of you now
Are the tears.

I said to myself,
"Don't you dare trust a man!"
Once again, I ignored me,
And now here I am.

Cleaning up the mess,
I created inside.
Trying to salvage,
What's left of my pride.

Building the walls I tore down even higher,
Cause you turned out to be a cheat and a liar.
I try and I try to teach me some sense,
Just can't be taught-my heart is too dense!

Hope springs eternal, it's hard to tamp down.
"Be careful, don't love him," I say with a frown.
So I plug my ears and don't listen to me,
I guess I'll give up and just let myself be!

    I am a writer living in Mt. Vernon, Ohio. I enjoy thrift shopping, working in the garden, singing karaoke and spending time with my children and grandchildren. I have only recently started writing, and one of my poems, "Song 4 You" has already been adapted to music by my son, David Lee Rotten (of Naked Highway), and will be released in early 2015 on his debut solo album/video project Bound.
