Maybe We Weren’t Meant To Be (Bussokusekika)

Edwin Tanguma 1966 (CA)



Maybe We Weren’t Meant To Be   (Bussokusekik)

You listened to me
You left the guy in the booth
How selfish was I
I didn’t think you’d do it
Yes turnabout is fair play
Maybe we weren’t meant to be

About this poem

A bird in the hand….I will no longer try to hold onto you my love…I will not post anything further from the dark years…I set you free…As IF I ever needed to do such a thing…Please do not let me keep you from being you and from the happiness you deserve…Maybe we were just too toxic for each other but we were just too blind to even notice…I don’t know if it is above you…So sorry…Soup was served last night…I’ll be dining at 4 square tonight…Meeting new people is more fulfilling than a free meal…I didn’t want to get into a philosophical discussion about whom I believe I am nor try to burst his bubble…https://www. google.com/search?q=armageddon+meaning&client=safari&sca_esv=587840656&channel=iphone_bm&source=hp&ei=gV5uZZ6kK97WkPIPtOW6qAg&oq=arnagedd&gs_lp=EhFtb2JpbGUtZ3dzLXdpei1ocCIIYXJuYWdlZGQqAggAMhIQABiABBiKBRhDGLEDGEYY-QEyChAuGIAEGLEDGAoyChAAGIAEGLEDGAoyChAuGIAEGLEDGAoyChAAGIAEGIoFGEMyChAAGIAEGLEDGAoyExAuGIAEGLEDGIMBGMcBGK8BGAoyChAAGIAEGLEDGApIzCdQAFjUCHAAeACQAQGYAYECoAGaCaoBBTAuNi4xuAEByAEA-AEBwgILEC4YgAQYsQMYgwHCAhAQLhiABBiKBRhDGLEDGIMBwgIFEC4YgATCAgUQABiABMICBxAuGIAEGArCAhAQLhiABBiKBRhDGLEDGLED4gMFEgExIEA&sclient=mobile-gws-wiz-hp As if the internet could be considered the Hill of Megiddo…One is entitled to believe whatever it is their heart desires for them to believe…Facts are facts…Oh…And just for the record…It’s not as IF I can’t afford to rent me a nice place…I believe I am doing as I am led to do…It sure wold be nice IF there were a strong rugged woman out there who wouldn’t mind living off grid with me for a while…I have heard rumors that Alaskan woman are of such fiber…You could read about the woman given 2 wings of a great eagle…I am just not completely sure about the wilderness…I really do believe it to be Van Horn, TX…Only time will tell…As IF it could be being homeless…It has been said that home is where your heart is…At this moment in time…I haven’t the foggiest idea exactly where that might be…
