Veni, Vidi, Vici

Empty words take the place of what I'd say; I'm at a point of complete silence. Under Carolina skies, cloudy and gray, As these thoughts turn inside my head. I'm not brokenhearted, nor do tears fall; Can't believe what I've done more or less. What I thought was love wasn't love at all; Thrill is nostalgic and sinful, I guess. Yeah, I do and don't like mistakes; Who would hate a good adventure? The ugly beauty of escapades, Especially, when it was her. So now is the time to move on, And go make better of ourselves. We've conquered the things that were wrong, Leaving behind our stories to tell.

I came, I saw, I conquered... under cloudy and gray Carolina skies...who would hate a good adventure? Certainly not I...under the circumstances.

J.H. this is sad and I love how your poem depicts that sadness with the empty words line, and the cloudy Carolina skies. A good poem. I hope more people will see it. Luv, Andrea
