Jo Elliott Poems

Your fate is at a crossroads,
which way you go is for you to decide
and all you have to help you
are your instincts as a guide.
...

Now is the time to open your eyes
and really take the time to see,
know inside what you want to do
and make your dreams your reality.
...

Stop hurting me with your lies!
I see nothing but hatred in your eyes,
I do not want to look at you
because
...

How many times do we have to try?
Will there ever be a time I don't ask why?
Whether it's possible for you to show you care
and in life with me you'd like to share?
...

A year has passed and time has told
the love I felt has not run cold.
I still remember all the times we shared
and I hope you remember how much I cared.
...

Some people come and go in your life,
some are here to stay.
One may be your husband or wife,
while the others go on their way.
...

Is it because I know who I am
that the relationship feels like such a sham?
Or is it because I'm too ideal and what I want is too unreal?
...

I'm not going to take your crap anymore,
you'll be left on the doorstep if you knock at the door.

It's time to put all this to an end
...

I've done a lot of thinking
and I have now concluded,
in your life,
I know deep down
...

Was it the fear of something new?
Did I not have the guts to see it through
or did he just not add up to me
and not fit into my reality?
...
