Poems From The Heart

Talking for the Laughter


I've finally discovered the missing link
the piece that made me clench my teeth.
All you've ever wanted to do was...talk,
and would've said anything
just as long as the conversations didn't hault--
all my fault, and I thought I could see through your game,
in denial about your ways although i witnessed the truth, the pain.
your aim: to keep talking as long as you could
and if I started to love you in the process, then good!
Because of course that would only have me wanting to talk to you more
and with the new onset of emotions, our conversations would soar
high and beyond places never ventured before
and you didn't care that deep inside my core I would be different
Hell, after we both laughed, you simply lost interest.
Well...we talked and we laughed, and we talked and laughed again...
and amongst the talks and laughter my enlightenment set in.
I was trying to get silence from a man who just wanted to talk, and nothing more
So, now that I understand I'm going to talk like never before
and when we talk I'll only focus on the conversation at hand
without entertaining the thought of more than laughing ever again.
