    Description:
       i was expecting to be crushed when she outright told me one day that she didn't want me, that she found someone else. But she never said it, and i stopped getting bothered when she hid stuff from me, when she flaked out.

    i started waking up to the fact that I emotionally couldn't handle the waiting any longer. This is me mentally preparing for the worst, and pointing out the facts to myself, forcing myself to wake up to what was going on.

    i hate playing games, but she loves that sort of thing. i always tried to avoid doing it, but if you want to be with her, that's how it has to go. I started to wise up to her, to draw a line where i wouldn't be walked on. The last part is just a warning to her that i won't be here forever, and if i do leave, it wasn't because i never tried.

    dotswaiting for the hammerdots
    -------------------------------------------


    i kept waiting for the hammer
    to tear into my chest
    on the day you'd turn me down
    and i'd seldom ever rest.

    but that blow just never came
    when you started flaking out;
    i didn't feel the need to cry
    or turn to you and shout.

    i just finally came to realize
    the harsh reality
    that if you really wanted to
    you would have been with me.

    all those other words
    were just a ploy to stall
    when you bailed on me for others,
    when you didn't want to call.

    i guess i'm too available
    or treated you too well
    and no one wants what's right there
    so i won't go through this hell.

    so it's up to you to take a chance
    or piss it all away
    on trying to fake happiness
    but i haven't got all day

    if you let that clock keep ticking
    and someone comes along
    and i'm no longer standing there
    don't think i did you wrong.

      i think you make some very valid points in this piece. it would seem the subject is quite over used as are some of the lines/images you have used yet over all this piece speaks truth and also the avoidance of hurt. no one wants to be hurt. and no one wants the good guy to lose out. though that seems to be the way it happens quite frequently.


    i like that you were real enough to come to the realisation 'if you wanted me you would have been with me'.
    i think this realisation is a hard one to come to but ultimately it is one that saves a whole lot of time and longing [and sometimes stalking lol]

    you know... i like the waiting for the hammer title. i dont like how you applied it into the piece though. if i were to use the waiting for the hammer image i would try to match it with an unruly court where the judge is pounding his hammer/gavel saying ORDER! ORDER! which in some ways is what this piece is doing.

    i like the way you cover yourself at the end with the whole idea of 'dont say i havent tried... dont say ive done you wrong...' because girls are so useless and never know what/who they want until they cannot have them anymore...

    This is great...honest and poetic and definitely relating to a subject that is on my mind these days.

    This situation sucks...I seem to find myself in it a lot...Thanks for posting this when I needed it most!!!
