Eileen Manassian Poet Quatrain

Message Has Been Seen

You’re much too proud to answer
Don’t want to appear too keen
But every single message sent 
Has a check mark…meaning “seen”!

Won’t start up conversations
You won’t ask me how I’ve been
You keep it all under wraps
But my messages are…..”seen”!

You won’t come out and say it
But I know you’ve checked the screen
You answer what’s in my eyes
For my messages you’ve “seen”!

Sometimes I get so angry
I resolve myself to wean
From writing all my feelings…
But then the message comes…”seen”!

And so I keep on writing
Though you TRY to act so mean
At the end of every day
All my messages are…..”seen”!

Jacob Cra December 8, 2012 at 1:14 PM Wow, this poem is spectacular, by far one of my favorites I have ever read (and I'm not just saying that). Is it published or what? It's really good, and you are extremely talented... I've read some of your other poems as well. You should visit my site: poeticpossibilities.tk ! I think this poem could have a really good chance of winning one of our contests! Wish you the best with your poetry and I hope you get published! : )Jacob Cramer LOVIN IT! Keep it up!

Jack Ellison December 8, 2012 at 8:42 AM The comments, good or just polite, are the reasons we put parts of ourselves out there! The number of "views" is more important than the number who write a review. Everyone here can certainly identify with this... love and hugs, Jack Eileen Manassian December 8, 2012 at 10:15 AM Jack, thanks ever so much for your post. I appreciate it so much. :) Have a lovely evening. I know the views are important, but I so enjoy the posts too! :)

Jon A Cavanaugh December 7, 2012 at 9:56 PM I enjoyed your poem. For the final message hold the "z" key down severely / The person at the other end should get that message clearly. Have a wonderful weekend. Eileen Manassian December 8, 2012 at 12:15 AM Thanks, Jon. Good advice! :)
