Ålter Ego Posted January 17, 2006 Share Posted January 17, 2006 Hello everyone. I am rather embarrassed to post this under my real username, hence the Ålter Ego username. Maybe I'll reveal myself. Maybe not. Who was she? There once was a woman Who was named Sarah Or maybe it was Dawn Suzanne or Farrah She was in her mid twenties On the cusp of Sagittarius Or maybe in her early thirties With her moon in Aquarius With strawberry blonde hair That she wore in a bun And sparkling emerald eyes That would tango with the sun I saw her during my lunch breaks Which always brightened my day But I never had the courage To express what I am about to say If I only had the courage To tell her how I felt About the way she smiled That would make my heart melt If I only had the courage To let her know that I exist Then maybe last night We would've shared our first kiss Instead I write this poem As I lament the time That I never had the courage To ask her to be mine She was here in a heartbeat Now she's gone in a whisper And I sit here alone Regretting that I miss her Who was she? Who is she? And what will she be? I will never know Because she will never be with me Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ShySoul Posted January 18, 2006 Share Posted January 18, 2006 You never know what the future may hold. You may run into her again one day. But otherwise, learn from it and next time you have a chance like that, go for it. Nice poem. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ShySoul Posted January 18, 2006 Share Posted January 18, 2006 Our very own enotalone mystery. Who is alter ego's, alter ego? It's not me.... or is it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Msnak Posted January 18, 2006 Share Posted January 18, 2006 LOL! It's like "Scooby Doo" with the mysteries. Love the Poem, Alter! Perhaps you've got a hero complex...live your real life without your mask, eh? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ShySoul Posted January 18, 2006 Share Posted January 18, 2006 LOL! It's like "Scooby Doo" with the mysteries. And he would have gotten away with it if it weren't for those kids and that mangy mutt. If I solve the mystery, do I get a scooby snack? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ålter Ego Posted January 18, 2006 Author Share Posted January 18, 2006 If I solve the mystery, do I get a scooby snack? Ok I am game. No cheating. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ShySoul Posted January 18, 2006 Share Posted January 18, 2006 On no.... now I've been challenged. Performance anxiety. Anyone want to help me here? Or at least can I have a hint? Make it as cryptic as you want, just something to go on so it isn't anyone of the thousand plus members on the site. Have to give us a sporting chance.

Ålter Ego Posted January 18, 2006 Author Share Posted January 18, 2006 I am not good at giving hints or clues. But if you use your noggin you can figure it out. You see, My poem is the clue For the answer you wish to delve When I wrote about my pain As the clock struck twelve Three hundred and seventy four Add one when it's tomorrow For I am the one Who speaks of nothing but sorrow...

Msnak Posted January 19, 2006 Share Posted January 19, 2006 Good grief, I can usually figure lots of stuff out, but I'm too darn sleepy! LOL! Maybe the suspense will allow us all to benefit from further poetry? I won't even try to wrap my brain around this...but someone will. Velma! Freddie?

ShySoul Posted January 19, 2006 Share Posted January 19, 2006 Velma! Freddie? Scappy Doo? Ok, so you think I should be able to get it. Does that mean I have spoken to you personally or at least answered one of your posts? Nothing but sorrow.... could really describe any number of people on here. Three hundred seventy four, adding one daily.... could that mean days? As in how long you've been posting? Speaking of regret of not talking to a girl, so I know what the sorrow is about. You posted on another thread about shyness being bad and not having good points, so I take it you are a fellow shy guy. Names are popping into my head, but I'm not positive. Am I on the right track so far? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shadows Light Posted January 19, 2006 Share Posted January 19, 2006 uggghhh.. "On the tail of my shadow" Ok.. so I am a libra and a brunette.. that counts me out. "On the tail of my shadow....????" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shadows Light Posted January 19, 2006 Share Posted January 19, 2006 Scratching our butts screaming You've set our minds awhirl Chasing shadows, pickles creaming You're as sneaky as a squirrel How many pen about sorrow Threads are littered with tears Will take me longer than tomorrow To dig through all the fears Come out come out, where ever you are Royal, Mod or Veteran Give us another clue better than… Pen of Sorrow Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ålter Ego Posted January 19, 2006 Author Share Posted January 19, 2006 I loved that Shadow. I just read it and had to edit my post. Very nice indeed. I was going to quote ShySoul, but I would've given it away with my riddles. You are on the right track though, Mr. Soul. I am dancing around your soul as a clone. Here is one last clue... To find out who I really am And cease the suspense from growing My other avatar is the symbol That means Forever Flowing Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ShySoul Posted January 19, 2006 Share Posted January 19, 2006 Avatar..... forever flowing..... going to do a search now.... you clearly aren't my first guess though..... he's avatar clearly doesn't mean that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Miss M Posted March 10, 2006 Share Posted March 10, 2006 I know I'm weeks behind the rest of you, but did anyone ever figure out the true identity? ... 'cause I really do know who he is. Am I too late? Can I still guess and win the prize? [jumping up and down, raising hand] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ShySoul Posted March 11, 2006 Share Posted March 11, 2006 Miss M, the identity was uncovered. But if you can guess correctly, I'll give you a special prize. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kyoshiro Ogari Posted March 11, 2006 Share Posted March 11, 2006 I'm curious to find out who this guy is myself. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Miss M Posted March 11, 2006 Share Posted March 11, 2006 I'm curious to find out who this guy is myself. LOL, And I'm sooo amazed nobody has figured out it YOU!!! Hahaha Clever boy! EDIT: Oh wait, ShySoul said the identiy was discovered? Who discovered it? I'm so late. I saw the clues long ago, but I didn't know there was a guessing game going on. hehe KO, you're REALLY a talented writer. Man, why to you hide yourself away so much?

Kyoshiro Ogari Posted March 11, 2006 Share Posted March 11, 2006 Thank you, Miss M. I was embarrassed because I never wrote a poem before this one. No one actually discovered it. When I replied to one of the threads, I didn't realize I was doing it under this username. After I posted it, I had a rather loud Homer Simpson moment. ](*,) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
