Distant concerns!!



I met her on my last vacation, things when really well.
We shared so many secrets and some we couldn't tell.
And now I'm back at home and she stays on my mind.
But distance seems to be a concern worries I might find.

We talked for hours last week I thought it will never end.
Excited we both were to finally meet a new friend.

Then she brought the subject up, and t made me feel unsure.
That if by chance this all might work what pain we could endure.
The more we talked about it, the less my interest grew.
We gently changed the conversation and it was clear what to do!

Carl Semien

Hi.....my name is Carl Anthony Semien, I was born on Oct 25th 1957 in Lake Charles, La. I found my passion for writing poetry when I entered my first poetry contest with Poetry.com in 1997 with the poem "A Place" which gave me my first poetry Editor's Choice Award. Since then I've published two poetry books and received 5 more Awards. Writing is a vent for me and I'm a better person because of it! Now I reside in Hollywood, Ca. Where I continue writing to inspire, encourage, and challenge my readers and other fellow poets out there! Hope my poems brings optimism, change, to make this world a better place. And most importantly, when my life is over, let it be said....."I Contributed more than I Criticized!" more…
