Another two months, another poem

Aug 31, 2007 23:08

Two posts in three months, I am not the model of consistency. But I honestly never know where to turn when I feel like crap. So Livejournal has become my outlet.

I need to know what you all think about "Can't Do This," a poem about something I'm about to face for the first time ever Saturday night:
That phone call I will remember ( Read more... )

it's just that i'm torn up inside on how to feel about liking a girl who has a kid. i just got back in from a date with her and it went great, amazing. it felt so right, but on the other hand it's unknown territory. so i have to hold onto my seat.

right now i think its okay to date her. but when things get more serious you have to consider if your ready for that kind of commitment. it's not your kid, but kids get attached to men who are in their lives you know. so be careful. if you think you can find what you want in her, then see where it goes.

the thing is, she wasn't pushy at all. she told me how it happened, where she's at with her son, and what kind of role he has in her life. she didn't push any agenda, though. she didn't say anything that would indicate she's looking for some financial and emotional support or that she wants her son to have some fatherly role model. she just took our date in stride and thats what kind of impressed me. so again, we'll see what happens but right now it feels right. so im gonna keep going with it.

ya done good, buddy boy, ya done good. it's good to experience new things- past be damned, future be damned. hope it works out. <3

well, i wouldn't say i 'done good' just yet. i'm still seeing her. who knows - in a couple days, it might be official that we're 'dating' (i hate that term). i wrote that poem in anticipation of our first date, figuring i'd probably have such an abhorrence to dating someone with a kid that i'd end it right then and there. instead, im enjoying what we have and her company, so we'll see how it goes. i'll keep you posted. but it's good to hear from you, nat. be in touch, ok?
