SERIOUS SUE


A Collection of Serious Poetry

Thank you for coming to visit this completely different section of my site. Unlike "Soose", Sue is a bit more serious. On these pages, I am Sue--not "Soose". There is no comedy on these pages, like on the others; there are no kitties running about. My poetry had been described by others as being "unusual", "different", "heavy", "serious", and even "disturbing" on a few occasions. So, if you are not into this kind of creative writing, these pages are not for you. If, however, you WOULD like to read my serious side, PLEASE continue! I hope you will enjoy and appreciate them.

"Thoughts"

When I'm sitting in the dark, waiting for the light,
I think of things that have been, and things that were right.
Of things I could've done, and the things I did do--
Of people I know, and people I once knew.

The feeling of happiness, the sorrow of being lonely,
Being of many, or being the only.
The joy being high--the sad being low.
Why do I think this, I do not know.

My mind is busy, and deep in thought;
It is racing fast--it won't be caught!
I haven't thought of these things in many a year--
These thoughts so cherished, these thoughts so dear.

"Where Is My Mind Tonight?"

Where is my mind tonight?
It has escaped once again--
Looking for what "might";
Finding only "when".

Where is my mind tonight?
I wish that I could tell--
Something is not right;
Something is not well.

Where is my mind tonight?
I guess it has gone to play.
I've yet to see the light--
I'm waiting for the day.

Where is my mind tonight?
I'll take a chance and say,
That it has taken flight--
God, I wish that it would stay!

"Friends"

Whenever I'm feeling low
And at wit's end,
The comfort I know
Is having a friend.

One who will understand--
Or, at least, seem to.
One who will take command--
With good thoughts to cling to.

Real friends are hard to find;
I realize that.
Most seem to be "blind"--
Some don't come back.

Some "shine" you on.
With some, the friendship ends,
With others, you don't "belong"--
I guess it just all depends.

On the Net, nothing seems real;
A screen with a signal that sends--
Virtuality--it is no big deal;
But I still do have great friends.

Whenever I'm feeling low--
And am not quite sure what to do,
The comfort that I know
Is having great friends like you.
