Question: I recently started writing, and this poem is an edited version of a letter i wrote!.comments!?
so, if you will,
please imagine my day!.
there you are, so far away, feeling the way that you feel!.
and here i am, alone, feeling the way i do!.
while enjoying a rare solitary bath
i (finally) hear from you
too much in shock to even be mad, or upset!.
shellshocked, understanding even!.
questioning myself!.!.!.my femininity, my sexuality, my soul!.
sitting through what should have been a joyeous evening!.!.!.the whole time, my brain spinning!.
drinking wine and great tequila, far too much of!.
today, driving home,
a cardinal flew past my windshield!. an omen!.
the cardinals have flown for you, too!.
i bared so much of myself to you!. i feel naked and unprotected by the shell i carry with me day to day!.
i dont even know how to react!.
i'm crying, then laughing, thinking about your silliness!. i shall never know how "les mis" ends!.
im sitting here alone, wearing your beautiful (killing me) ring!.
did you ever stop to think that you have to earn magic!?
i did!.Www@QuestionHome@Com


Best Answer - Chosen by Asker:
It's kind of ambiguous, but filled with complex emotions and images!. I like the use of a cardinal as a symbol, though I'm not sure what it means here!.Www@QuestionHome@Com
