The Breakup Understepping Six

When I see you my heart skips a beat Because I know I've stolen your heart Now I See we are not meant to be I hope that you will smile once again When you start to cry my own tears fall You truly are the one I wanted I can't explain why I feel confused Things were not meant to go oh so wrong I did not wish to make you this sad See understepping One to see how to find the hidden line. I invite others to try this new form.

Above..what is the new form called? Perhaps label on the bottom?[Re:Straw Men..I always encourage discourse ;) I too believe in God but not in the dominion of man, not in original sin. I also think though some men appear to have a brain, many many more [I speak of men & woman both here] appear not to?And for me God is all both darkness & light, all actions must take place YET we may choice the side we act on...Light & Love

Hi Debbie, I call it Understepping. I appreciate your response. There is a story about Einstein and a proffesor and Einstein that deals with the subject of Darkness and light and good and evil. I think you would find it very intresting. Even if Your writing pushed some emotional buttons I still appreciate your skill and passion.
