It hangs on my door
My favorite shirt
The pattern of plaid
So complex, yet so bright
It is meant to keep that special one warm
Keep that special one safe
To remind that special one
They are loved
It yearns to be shared
It yearns to be given
It yearns to be worn
Yet the shirt still hangs on my door.
 
brownie...if i could give you one piece of advice it would be to stop thinking about how your life should be and just live it. know that you are a great person with a beautiful heart and eventually life will take you where you need to go. staring at that special shirt isnt going to get you anywhere...look around you and see what you do have instead of focusing on what you dont. we are all searching for the same thing so live the best life you can and one day you'll open your eyes and realize how beautiful life can be...life is what you make it

a wise person told me once... If you pray for something and don't get it you lose faith, if you hope for something and it never happens you may lose faith. but if you ask for nothing, while living you life everything will be a gift a reason for hope and wonder of god.
personally i'm not one of the faithful but the rest has seemed to hold true, we're both stuck in a bad time and i hope we both can get through it strong, we'll make it out even more resilient(sp?).
we can let those crazy females get us down.
Sheet it could be worse, at least we're both relitivly healthy and intelligent.
oh well I'm sure this prattle hasn't really helped anything, but it's better than my usual "wow i feel ya"
buck up big guy you rock!

Why is everyone in a hurry. Sit back relax. You will see more and might see someone that catches your attention...but you never notice..cause you are looking at the shirt. You have a huge heart...bigger than what you think...when you and that someone find each other...you will know.
Take a deep breath...and appreciate life... worrying will get you nowhere. Trust me.

I don't have anything to add - except the silly realization that occurred to me:
My favorite shirts are the ones that have been worn by the girls I've dated. I have a blue shirt that doesn't fit me any more (too big) but I'll never throw it away because I wore it the night I met the girl who took my virginity - and she wore it the next morning.
Rest assured - the shirt'll find it's way to somebody special.
 
Listen sweetie, you know I know where you're coming from. I want to give you so much advise, like everyone else, without sounding like a hypocrite. Hell, I wanna give you the world. I want to give my friends, my family, my ex (yes.. them too), and complete strangers pure happiness if it were possible. And I know you do to. Someone, someday, is going to appriciate that quality in you. Don't let that big heart of yours turn people away when it should be opening up to people right now, especially. There's really nothing that I can tell you that you haven't already heard or that you don't already know. I know that if you dig you can make yourself happy and fill that lonelyness. You have to motivate yourself, no one else can do it for you.
OK, now that I wrote all that, I'm not quite sure if it applies to the poem. Regardless, I wanted to say it
biggrin.gif
so there you have it. Lotsa love... excellent writing!

***do do do dooo (YEAH)***
 
from a jaded female's point of view...
no shirt will ever feel like mine..
none will remain,
none will offer the comfort,
the warmth,
or the security...
as my own...

Thank you all for your kind words, but my poem was interpreted wrong. Someone out there coughcoughresquecoughcough will have that shirt in Feb..I was posting on how it was hers to take. It will hang til she takes it.
Grr..don't cry for me Argentina...lol

But thanks I know I can write something and have the world to lean on.

its funny that whatever you write here in words is taken literally or that its just about the person who wrote it but it seems that its usually the case. artistic expressions of poetry can mean different things to different people and that is what makes it so great. its like when you look at a painting and everyone in the room sees something different. i guess brownie everyone just saw the same thing

It sounds like this Resque chick is pretty cool. I wish I could meet a girl like her. Oh wait... I am a girl. Nevermind. I wish I could meet somebody like her anyway... Congratulations Brownie... she sounds like a keeper.
Bwahahahahahahaha

wow....I didn't know there was something going on with Resque, Audie. Congrats
