Together

Contributed by dirk-velvet on Friday, 13th November 2009 @ 06:42:49 AM in AEST
Topic: oops



i envy people sometimes.
some people.
couples mainly.

i sit alone
on a
coffee counter stool
and
eat.

next to me
in a booth
sits a young couple.

they look good.

they laugh
hold hands
eat.
... together.

i think back to the time when i was
... together.

it really wasn't
all that great.

so in jealousy i sit here and think ...

"they're probably not all that happy".


they finish eating and leave the money on the table.

the girl makes a joke about the tip.

they
laugh
and
kiss
and hold hands
as they walk out the door.

i watch them get into their car.
they kiss while pulling across the safety belts.

they smile to each other and
drive off.


"maybe they'll fight
when they get home".

This is a very interesting poem.
Your scars are very apparent here,
and I really hope you find some
happiness very soon.
Best wishes Last Star x x x

I'm sorry dirk, I know that you must have some painful memories in your
past, (who doesn't right?), but I actually got a chuckle out of the last two
lines. Wow. Now THAT is a perfect description of sour grapes if I've ever
seen one. I have felt what your narrator does. I won't assume this is from
real life, but if it is, just know you are not alone. Humans are hopeless.
We have chronic "grass-is-always-greener" syndrome. We are never
satisfied.

Excellent piece. Stirs the depths of the reader.

maybe on their way home they will see a lady biker on a bonneville with a silly smile on her face and they'll say...i wish we had a motorcycle and a silly grin on our faces!
