Please,
continue stating
that you’ve forgotten about me.
I like knowing
that I’ve faded out of your mind.
It eases my guilt
and gives me a chance
to be a total stranger to you.
I wanted you to forget my face
and my voice,
so I could use mind tricks
and seduce you again.
– Chatty Owl –
Ha! So you stealthily slip back under his skin.
Thats an idea 😉
Loved it
Loved this, Ms. Owl! But now it’s confirmed – I always knew you were a bit of a sorceress, wielding those mind tricks of yours… 🙂
So intriguing and with such delightful truth twist at conclusion.
Devious, but in a good way…I like how your mind works.
Sounds familiar :p
It has already been said but I liked that twist at the end 🙂 great poem
Oh dear, I think you may have witnessed my life at one point 😉 you would be hard to forget methinks 🙂 xx
If he keeps stating, he hasn’t forgotten. Not by a long shot. LOL.
quite nice, as usual!!
anyone who can forget you, didn’t try and know you, nicely written
Is it always a game with you? X
Owl,
LOL That’s great! You are in control and that poor guy ain’t got a chance. He ought to just surrender and save himself because I am sure he will be coming on back again and again. I think of the cat with the poor battered but still alive mouse under one paw just sitting there casually waiting to see what happens. Well we all know what happens but that poor mouse doesn’t got a chance… I love your words every time I enjoy them… Thanks Owl, claudy
Fade – never.
Chris.
what a lovely denouement – nicely done, owl
Who on Earth could forget you?
If someone has truly forgotten, would they remember to tell you… And if they tell you, they are employing their own mind tricks… Well, at least they both could say they had goals in common. :p ….
from the written perspective – nice use of the muse metaphor as I see it. but yes, it can go in other directions as well.
Only a loser would stop wandering in your neighbourhood. 😉
some curves and nuances one never quite forgets…
“You have to wonder
what’s goin’ on,
and maybe this time
you’re overdrawn;
This time around
the pressure’s on.”
Second chances are always good, especially when you get them without the baggage of the past!
Cheeky!
Thats me! Haha!
Cheeky Owl, Twin sister to Chatty, Eh?!
love the twist at the end…
Twists are good!
Ohhh, that ended differently than I thought. I like it. It’s kind of like watching a good movie the second time but you want it to be as enjoyable as the first time. 😀
Yes! And then you notice more details and more things that you can enjoy!
Oh yeah, that’s an excellent point. Super like that. 🙂
Sneaky!
Sorry! 🙂
