        ~ the one who fears love...painful experiences must be included ~
                                               my quote

                             Who twisted the strings on the guitar?
                                 A fading sound from a noisy bar
                               As the wind from the bare window
                                barn swallows fly low, you know
                                     His emotions blown away
                                    recyclable, but will not stay

                                      The parchment cracks
                                  from bird's eye view a climax
                                the night charmer in camouflage
                            she is waiting for his following barrage
                                 Her love was never reciprocated
                                     being loved is complicated

Phyllis Babcock July 17, 2023 at 11:51 AM Complicated, confusing and a roller coaster of emotions when love is not reciprocated-----unrequited love. EXCELLENT. love phyl

Beryl Edmonds July 17, 2023 at 6:09 AM Being loved is complicated, so true. Inspirational poetry Anne-Lise, there’s so many ways to write of what being loved means and you do it with ease… Belle

Paul Bell July 17, 2023 at 5:53 AM Some see love as a one-night stand, which obviously brings it own problems. It keeps us going though, so we pursue it.

Mike Gentile July 17, 2023 at 5:02 AM Oh yes, love certainly os complicated!! Your poem is beautifully expressed! Happy Monday!!

Joseph P. DiMino July 16, 2023 at 2:23 PM For most of the world it is complicated...but I think you would only need be yourself, Lise. A rolling stone...gone with the first wind, a slight breeze enough for many to depart these days. Excellent writing.

Regina Mcintosh July 16, 2023 at 11:02 AM It's sad, yet - yes, complicated - yes, sometimes that is the way it is and oftentimes, so confusing and disconcerting. Wonderful writing. A winner for sure. Alive with emotion and meaning. God bless you my friend, Love, Gina

Paula Goldsmith July 16, 2023 at 10:22 AM I enjoyed your "Lovers" write/picture. A wonderful ending. Have a good day..........................

Vijay Pandit July 16, 2023 at 3:58 AM Powerful emotions of unrequited love--well expressed, Anne-Lise.

Frederic Parker July 15, 2023 at 7:12 PM the disarray of the world's confusion pictured in your poem is stunning, it reads like life, not knowing what's coming next...good luck Anne-Lise Andresen July 16, 2023 at 3:30 AM - You're right that it's about life, Fredric... life and love... not the true love...but, the cold unfeeling one - Thank you for your comment :) - hugs

Speaks Volumes July 15, 2023 at 6:32 PM OK this will sound wrong, because I liked it as I read it, and I cant say why. Its disjointed to me but that ads to the mystery. Then I saw the toss of the dice, and your poem told me she is waiting for him to come to her. This is unusual Anne-Lise, and being unique is what makes it special. Speaks Volumes July 19, 2023 at 2:14 AM ahhh I see you have changed the words and the dice throw is changed. Sorry Anne-Lise its like you lifted a veil. Well done. Now this dummy understands perfectly. Sorry that you had to change it for me, I bet every one else understood. Great poem. BOL Anne-Lise Andresen July 16, 2023 at 3:23 AM - I see I've created a bit of confusion ... trying to clear this up ... thanks for reading, Wendy:) - hugs

Bill Baker July 15, 2023 at 3:56 PM You set the table with the photo, Anne-Lise. Good rhyming and it flowed well. Have a good weekend, my friend, Bill Anne-Lise Andresen July 16, 2023 at 3:21 AM - The photo was not supposed to tell my poem ... this has been changed ... thanks for reading, Bill :) - hugs

Lin Lane July 15, 2023 at 3:03 PM Anne-Lise, I'm not sure if I'm discerning your meaning in this one, and if not, I still appreciate the mood you've set with the ominous words and photo you've chosen. Anne-Lise Andresen July 16, 2023 at 3:38 AM - Thanks for coming back and giving it another chance, Lin :) - hugs Lin Lane July 16, 2023 at 3:26 AM You are amazing to me in so many ways. I comprehend now, having been in her position more than once. Hugs for translating and best wishes for your entry. Anne-Lise Andresen July 16, 2023 at 3:19 AM - Both photo and text have been changed, Lin ... to make it a little easier to understand ... thank you for trying ... :) - hugs
