Let's play carsales woman
I will participate
you buy me
use me
driving me into the ground
my vehicle
down
Pick at my parts
Hire an overpriced mechanic
to fix me
lift me back into the streets
I roll
by someone else who will use me
until I fall apart again
accepting
this is life and no one wants
to be with the same person for
too long or maybe it's just me
thinking that forever means as long as I live
Because as long as I live
I have something to give
And If I'm not the latest and greatest
I will never be
and I don't want to be
I just want someone to accept me
as me
holding one another as hostages
abusing our lives together trying to
compromise on a ransom
Wondering why I tell woman they are beautiful
when they really are beautiful
in full
view
as in maybe I'm a fool
because I can't even get a handsome
as in some
Men don't ask for much when it comes to
compliments
narrowing it down to how about
once every other year would make a great start
sending words to a heart that could use a smile
So use me
abuse me
and send me to the junkyard
I know forever is a lie

how about complimenting yourself first? great write!

Great write indeed...and yes....handsome

That was a great write, like she said you are a very handsome young man

I know that I am my best alone. That no one can take better care of me than me. That no one can love me like me. That no one will take the time to really want to get to know me because we all love ourselves way too much to make anyone happier than ourselves. Because letting ourselves down is easy and this is self inflicted love chained to reality I speak.

Someone will say, this guy needs God in his life.

Please don't try to show me God. I haven't seen him yet, and when I do, I know we will have our talk.

uh oh! Thank you both, flame and kim

You didn't have to say that. I wasn't trying to fetch compliments. But thank you. Very sweet.

J the truth... Everyone wants to love properly deep within and be loved the same BUT fear over rides this inate need/desire. Everyone has the experience of being hurt when making oneself vulnerable(which is whaat you do when you love properly) thus an are is put up between them by both parties. Someone has to make the first step closer and drop the arm by making themselfs vulnerable the key I belive is to be the one that takes the first step AND most importantly give new experience to the other BY not taking advantage of their vulnerablity by "poking" them when things are taken personal and hurting the other. New experience(of loving properly/makingself vulnerable) must be given for the vulnerality to be continued and expanded.... LaLaLaLaLala

very profound. Much needed to hear that. Thank you PM!

He speaks the truth J ~ your heart is deep, one can tell from your writings. don't ever give up on finding it.

you know there was never a better time for a dancer than the eighties solo lyrical what with music all of art of noise and new order and there was never a better time..

PM is right. And you are so obviously full of passion by reading your writings there is no way you will spend your life alone. Being vulnerable is the hard and scary part but the steps must be taken even if it doesn't work out the first couple times. We keep trying because we don't want to live without that gut wrenching, heart pounding, ecstacy seeking love.

one must enjoy the trip

Life is Awwwwwwwwwww-mazing ,, you are an incredible young man and when the time is right
she will see your soul and embrace all you have to offer,,,
