YOUNG and OLD


Young and Old 
you know how the story goes
when conspiracy is always in ones life
We should have known better
so why give me a love letter
I can't feel no remorse for what you wrote
and you don't feel nothing back.

like if we where the same
no one hear is the blame 
I can see you feel like you are on top of things
so why all the rain? 
I know you could never see past my blinders
that you could never do 
Because I would never let you
but while time has past 
you have been on blast, 

You started creeping back into my mind
most of the time
Boy you know how to bring on a flood 
Don't you? 
I tell my self over and over 
I don't feel nothing for you at all
So I get up and go shopping at the mall
just to shop you out of my mind another time
young and old that is how it all goes
Love is a big old mystery 
and it make history.

To all my readers you may see that their are grammar errors in my old writings, but these writing are from the80's, 90's ,2000's. I truly didn't think anyone was readying my work . so I just started writing out what I felt and made my pains a story and poems . I had re post these poems and stories all over the internet and I keep them also in file so no one can ever say my work is theirs . I have kept my work as they are just for others to see where it was I started my writing at . The pains are so real not even a game ,The life I had lived I would never wish upon no one . I like to say to all who are taking the steps for change in their life congratulations to the new open doors God bless you . You may have seen my photos on the internet and my writings on Poetry.com and poem hunter etc. you may have seen the hate that others have given to me about my work and my beauty of who I am . But as you can see I will never let the haters Stop me from doing what I love . So I say the same to all of you write your own words and let your heart speak to all your readers . I hope you can understand why I haven't made changes in my work at less not the old ones . My old work are left as they are for me to always remember where it all came from . God bless to all who reads . Lilly Emery / Judy Emery
