Due on Maple Street

I speak only loud enough to be heard,
quietly, so you wonder if I'm not
speaking to myself, I don't repeat
my words, don't apologize for them,
except out loud, and you accept,
internally I continue to find fault
with you

Hmmm. That was an interesting bit. I must point out that you hit an r instead of a T when writing for - it was nagging me . Other then that, you seem to have really put some emotion into this piece, and though I am not sure when you mean, in regards to the reason or events that lead to this poem, I can surely tell how you feel.

I will do my best to post on and help as many poeple as I can. I only hope that others return the favor, seeing as I am in desperate need of writing assistance...
