And now, for some poetry. This first one I wrote about two years ago, when I moved back to Texas away from beautiful Virginia. I like it.

The second one is referring to my continuing lack of love life. xp

<center>Alone
(Name now edited out because it makes me nervous xp )

I sit in my room,
All alone.
I think about everything,
'bout my friends far from home.

Off 'way in Virginia, California, Pompei,
Why do they have to be so far away?
Why can't they be here with me,
Or why couldn't I stay?

I cry into my pillow,
Wonder why I'm so sad.
I have a great life,
It really isn't all that bad.

Off in the distance,
On the wild Texan plains,
I hear an anguished howl,
That echos my pains.

I lift my head up,
And look out toward that cry,
A wolf weeping through the night,
And I can't help but wonder why.

Has that wolf lost it's friends?
Family? A mate?
Or maybe, like me,
It merely mourns it's own fate.

Note: I tried to make the wolf a coyote, since those are more common on the 'Texan plains', buut... That's didn't rhyme right. smile

Haiku
I am loved by all
But I continue to be,
Treasured by none</center>

Yeah, so my life is such a sob story. sweatdrop Not really, I'm just depressed all the time. I probably have some sort of disorder, but I don't care enough to have it checked or anything. Or maybe I care too much that they will put me on pills. xp
