No. The latest two poems were written for an old love. We were engaged when we were young, parted ways, and rediscovered each other just this past fall. She is now married, and so we'll never be down that path again. The poems are just a reflection of emmotions knowing that we can't be anything but friends.

The money=happiness girl never got a single poem from me. She didn't deserve it.

hey, this is a poem i wrote a long time ago, and re-worked it some (it doesn't reflect
my current life; i am happily married)

GOODBYE

You want to drive your car to Miami.
You want your life back.
You came to say goodbye.

At the hospital, when we met,
I was pale as death.
And you fell in love with death.

Here's this picture: You, me,
Payne's Prairie in the background.
When I held you for the camera

I could not breathe.
In a hundred years,
none of this will matter,

our first day together,
our last, you, me, the dust
that coats your car like rain.

You came to say goodbye.
What can I say?
Goodbye.

Awesome mem! It's more proof that women fall in love with their ears and men fall in love with their eyes. That's fortunate for me. My brother always says "If women don't find ya handsome at least they can find ya handy"- from the Red/Green show. I think you could add ". . . handy or a poet" to that. OOps, I didn't mean you weren't handsome. And that didn't mean you WERE handsome, I wouldn't know. Wait, I'll ask my wife. Yep, she says you're handsome too- of course she had already read your poetry so I'm sure she couldn't see straight. <Just got smacked in the head> I know. . . stop digging! I should just delete this reply and go fix something.
