by the way...roger is right...not that you should go...all mushy and dumb...but with the same air as the confession...release...the future...thanks for sharing...
...hmm...this is good...it unites very...well with the first one...i only just read this today...was i missing out or what...i like the dark kind of twist...you give this one...hmm...
I strongly agree with Alison! Being a little hard on yourself... yet very good Poetically. When do we measure our experiences in totallity? When can we ever be judge and Jury? At least Poetry allows us to explore our deeper selfs. The next one of a New Love... A Rainbow.... A new Spring.... RogerX
This will have me chasing to (1) . Sigh. A confession indeed.... but who among us has little to confess? Very finely penned, and ringing home. t x
I've just read the first 'confession'. This one is certainly darker with more guilt. Both are equally good poetically - the first though, has more compassion. I think you're too hard on yourself this time. love, Allie ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥

I do agree though, everyone has a right to decide how they will be treated, so don't be too hard on yourself. A good poem though which displays the sensitivity within the writer. HG: -) xx
