Through all these words ( Archived) (8)

Getting to know the heart of you
Is what this thread is all about
We say our words in a whisper
And then type them into the night
Sometimes we are so serious
And other times we laugh and joke
But when it comes right back to you
The golden thread has yet to break.

Question:
Is it better to get to know
someone through the internet~ or through
dates, and interactions? Any thoughts?

Getting to know who I am
Helps me to get to know you.
Getting to know who you are
Helps me to to get to know me.
We whisper our words
When we can't share them
But sometimes our words change.
We can be serious
even when we joke,
We can laugh
When we want to
Or we can choose
not to laugh.

It is good to know people
and it is good to know yourself.
This place helps
in so many ways
although some are
not as obvious as others.
The internet, dates
and interactions can
give many thoughts.
Any thoughts?
I am Aquarious.
My thoughts never quit.

Today I thought about living good
and how each day is different
We never know what it will hold
Or the stories to be told
Wonder then who will I meet
In this day so unique

Today I know that living is good
And try to hold on to every day
Then tomorrow never comes
Hearts beating like a drum
Day to day, it's always today
In this day so unique..

Friends have told me
that I should get
out of the house once
in a while.
Last night I spent
some time with
my mother and aunt.
My sister had
baked a chocholate cake
and left it for all.
Pie is good
but I like cake, better.
I love my dog, Mo
and each day
I learn to treat
him better.
One must have quality time
with one's self, friends
and family.
Family doesn't end
when your mate passes away
and they still will
still try to love you.
One can be closer
sometimes to friends
outside of the family,
it depends on your version
of what family means to you.

Daughter still loves me
but I can blame that
on ex.
Daughter calls mother
asking for money.
Ex replies with anger,
Go ask your father
but agrees to send money.
Daughter complains about
mother but tells me
that I love you dad.
One brother still
loves me but I blame
it on him.
If you will fix
my computer tomorrow;
I will take you
out to dinner.
Mother still
loves me
but I blame it
on dad.
You are just like
your mother, he
said once in anger.
Aunt loves me
but I blame it on mother.
Aunt works for mother
and works for her
but she lives
right across the street
which mother helped
her to get.

My ex and me were in love
at one time.
But I felt she loved
her mother more.
Her mother picked
me out for her
but I met ex
before that through
a friend.
I left my ex one time
but my mother
told me to go back to her.
My ex couldn't stand
my mother.
My ex had a close bond
to her mother.
Her mother told me
when I met her
that her daughter
had a strong will
and I would have to
put my foot down
and show daughter
who was boss
in the family.
Each time we would
have a fight
she would run
to mother.
Ex and mother
couldn't get along
before I met ex
because her will
was as strong
as her mother.
Ex and me
had a fight
about moving
in with her
mother.
Ex would run
to me
every time
she had a fight
with her mother.
There isn't nothing
like the love
of a mother or a father.

My ex mother-in-law
and me were at one time
close friends.
She called me the son
that she never had.
My father-in-law
liked me and we were
close friends.
But he liked his wife
better than he liked me.
He proved it when
his wife and me
had it out.
He stepped in between us
because he knew neither
of us would give in.
My ex stood up
for her mother
but she kept
telling me
that she felt
she was caught
between her mother
and me.
I surrendered
and left
but still
the fight
goes on
between ex
and her
mother.

Ain't love a mother, lol.
