Lethal Circle

He just left a union
as if he didn't care,

he made his choice
with his own voice,

as if it were not there.

~

Not sure why the hurry
after everything was lost;

Christina feels doubt
he will ever find out,

what exactly was the final cost.

~

She blames not this Ms. Kelly
for hers, is a tiny mind;

she can't comprehend
losing a best friend,

she can't know, proving she's blind.

~

But Walter, in his ignorance
has "skills" he needs to hone;

Christina's too nice
he should heed her advice,

she'll stay friends.....if he'll leave her alone.

Dear Doc

Of all the poems of yours I've read this one is the most different ... but I cant say why its just got something ... cant put my finger on it ... but I will be back to this one love and hugs JayCee (Quote~~"It is by universal misunderstanding that all agree. For if, by ill luck, people understood each other, they would never agree. "--Charles Baudelaire)
