    • Powerfully penned, Nick. Brutally honest write my friend. Excellent work. Appreciate you.

    • I like how in the first stanza, you start out hazy and that no cares, then the next you explain the addiction and how everyone should relate in one form or another, because there are so many different addictions. Then you come back at the end and want to know who your true friends are.
      You lead the reader of this very nicely. Good write Nick;))

    • So this is your song if only…I like it.

    • A song played on a radio, as a teen-aged girl dreams of that secret crush she has. I’m sure that this lyrical gem has been played for so many young women, and men. It’s called a crush because thats what it feels like in our chests, huh!

    • Beautifully penned, Fia. Excellent write my friend. I really like this a lot. Appreciate you, cuz.

    • Chère F.,
      Every time I discover more reasons to love your write to bits.
      And this is also such an event.
      At the end of your poem, you offer a possibility to choose. Simply wonderful, but it reminds me of a song I once wrote. A long long time ago. And its title is Bevrijdingsdag. Translated: liberation day. I wouldn’t write a song with such a title today, but that’s another story.

      The chorus of the song is forceful and perhaps a bit extreme. It translates like this:

      You said ‘Married’ – and I said so what
      I’d love to choose if I may
      Don’t talk to me about divorce
      Everyday’s liberation day

      And then I asked the public:
      You’ve heard it. She said ‘married’. But didn’t say who is married, so it’s up to you to choose.
      – is he married
      – is she married
      – are they both married, but not to each other

      Raise your hands!

      And I would let the public decide. And I would have three songs ready to fit the decision.
      A situation, prone to personal ‘colouring’. My personal colouring that is. I’m not On a stage for nothing.

      Yes, a bit of a long reply. But maybe an idea 💡 for if and when you’re going to do some beat poetry. The public will love you all the more for this kind of surprises. Really.
      I’m a huge fan of open mic evenings; maybe I can transfer some of the excitement to you.
      Other than that: keep them coming, please.

      Warm regards, Gus

      • I do not mind long replies. I am happy that this ignited a memory and that you are encouraging me to do open mic. I would love to read it. No worries. I will use a translator. Thank you for loving my work. poems and stories.

    • Very nice indeed ma’am .. Neville 😎🌻👍
