If you can’t change a situation, there is no reason to dwell on it. Now when you figure how to keep it off your mind, let me know what you did. Cause I am guilty of it too. We have mucho in common. There are certain things I wish to exile from my mind, and I can’t. Thanks for reading. Have a good one. I will be visiting you soon.
Boom. Your second stanza got me thinking. Yes, of course. If you can’t get someone out of your head, maybe they ARE supposed to be there. Sigh. This is so lovely, Andrew. The chimp continues to amaze me.
I know that’s how it’s supposed to be. You can fall out of love with somebody and they are still stuck in your head….wrapping their poisonous tentacles around every part of your brain….suffocating you and slowly killing you with their venom.
How do you like my description of life with/without a narcissist? LOL.
You are too funny. But I understand you. When a relationship comes to an end, they stay stuck in your mind. And memories torture you. It can be devastating. You make me laugh so much
LOL. I need an operation. Too bad I didn’t fulfill my childhood dream of being the first female neurosurgeon in my hometown….I could hold up a mirror and operate on myself…and smile while I flushed the pieces of him down the commode!
Maybe but I didn’t used to be. You spend a lifetime getting knocked down and kicked and one day you stand up and want to kick back…and sometimes, you want Karma to do the kicking!
I doubt it. He’s paying for the companionship of a s***, so he’s apparently with the kind of woman he finds attractive….women who will drink with him and are willing to fuck a married man and who are already diseased (pardon my french.)
You’re assuming that he’s a normal human being. He’s a narcissistic sociopath. They don’t get hurt…they only hurt. I hate that he’s Southern….actually, I hate everything about him….sigh.
Trying to….he’s like the migraine headaches I used to have…sometimes for a week straight. I would go to bed, finally go to sleep and hope it would be gone the next morning….but IT WAS STILL THERE. LOL.
Amazing how people enter our minds and stay there. I entertained sixteen people in my house on Saturday night & I asked myself that same question. I was so willing to trade in all 16 for one. Thanks for reading.
I love this…. every word is perfect. Sometimes you just have to accept that your insides know what’s right and stop fighting. Oh it’s perfect. I think this may be my new inspiration…
Smiling. That is so sweet of you to say. Sometimes something enters our head and doesn’t wan to come out. So, maybe it IS SUPPOSED to be there. Why fight it. Dedlighted to inspire. Anxious to read anything you write.
Looks like it shall be another nice cozy snowy movie day for the kids while I hide and write. Hahaha! (I swear I’m not a bad mom…!) Actually a movie sounds really good because right now, One Direction is blaring out of my daughter’s room. That’s going to have to stop before my son flips out. Haha
I like the way the entire poem is structured around the words “Love” and “Maybe.” We all strive for “Love,” but “Maybe” it’s ok to be satisfied with any residual feelings as long as they enhance our lives.
A perfect Valentine – all that love should be – one person willing to give all they have even if it might not be returned. If you can’t do that, you aren’t in love.
Definitely when you can’t get someone out of your head they are somehow meant to be there. Unless they’re leprechauns, then they’d better be at the end of a rainbow 😛
Lovely photo.
