My Feet On The Ground

I tried to let the walls down

But something told me it was too soon

Thank God I listened because you turned out to be

Just another man singing the same old tune

 

You tried to say you were different but

Something told me not to let you all the way in

And now I get the speech we should be just friends

 

One day you love me, the next it is someone new

Thank God I am old enough to see the game and

Able to see right through you

 

Words are just words unless you are man enough

To make them more

I smiled and waved good-bye as you headed towards the door

 

I’m not like the others I can see the game you play

Go back to the young ones and I’m sure they will surrender and

Give you your own way

 

When you get scared and run from this one too

Take a good long hard look and

Don’t blame the girl cause baby it’s all you

 

When you grow up and want a real woman one who knows what she

Wants and where she wants to be

Good luck finding her, because it won’t be me

 

I’m so thankful my head is not in the clouds and

I didn’t fall this time around

No pain, no tears, I think I have finally got my

Feet on the ground

i really liked this poem, a lot of people are like that these days and sadly most women fall for it and then the young girls who turn to women and fall for it again. vicious cycle huh. but i'm glad you got your fet on solid ground until your angel lifts you up. great poem for its reality factor hun.

Thank you so much for your comment. Sometimes I wish reality wasn't so right in your face lol

The true philosopher and the true poet are one, and a beauty, which is truth, and a truth, which is beauty, is the aim of both.

Ralph Waldo Emerson, American Poet (1803-1882)
