You have never had me
You have never known me
I have met you in other people
But never in myself
I won’t let you get me
I will never open my door for you
I feel sorry for those who did
I admire the ones brave enough
To ask you to leave
Red eye

dang johanna that was tight. you eft it wide open for the reader to interpret for themselves...the its that cling and suck the life out of us. nice 55.
SvaraRaderaminr is up!
Really good. I have a particular personal opinion on the subject in your today's 55 as I read it. My husband is clean and sober nine years now and he and I do not drink alcohol. My father was an alcoholic. This post could be one for the twelve step programs everywhere.
SvaraRaderaOh nicely done. Like TechnoBabe said, this is one inspiring piece.
SvaraRaderaOh, brilliant! It took me a minute to get the picture....looking into a glass of wine, methinks? And it really does just look like a red eye. Truly awesome 55, Johanna. Moderation is the key. Unfortunately that isn't possible for everyone. Thanks for visiting me. I'm happy to have met you! I think I'm gonna tag along....
SvaraRaderaBrian: Thank you. I had an image in my head writing this, but you are right, this could be about any of the "Its" sucking the life from us.
SvaraRaderaTechnobabe: Thank you. You nailed it. :)
Hilary: Thank you. :)
Yvonne: Thank you so much. A glass of wine it is. And looking like a red eye it does. You are most welcome to tag along. :)
Clever riddle poem. See if you can spot the lyrics in my 55 words
SvaraRaderathis is sharp 55,
SvaraRaderaI feel it and it is exhilarating to think about the possibility in life...

Jo, this is a perfect description of sobriety. Well done!
SvaraRaderaPattiKen: Well, to me moderation is the key... But thank you. :)
SvaraRaderaA smart man learns from his mistakes. A wise man learns from the mistakes of others. Better to not get red eye to begin with.
SvaraRaderaintense, interesting, and wide open.
SvaraRaderabrilliant. I would like to say it'a woman who is speaking here. and some strong woman, too. regards.
SvaraRaderaOh I can get rid of Mr. Red Eye...

I had something else in mind. I was thinking a woman scorned.
SvaraRaderaWith God's power I had the strength to be able to ask "you" to leave.
SvaraRaderaVery cool 55.
