My Brand Of Chatterbox A Poem


I can be a chatterbox
I can talk quite a lot.
I can talk about
This and that
Some of it may
Make sense
Some of it may
Seem like a rant.
Some of it follows
In a straight line.
Some of it goes off
On a tangent
Some even seem
Like a roller coaster ride.

People get used to
This quality about me
Or they dismiss me entirely.
What should I do
When the latter happens?
Should I be depressed
That I have been
Judged harshly?
Should I realize
That I not
Everyone's cup of tea?
The saying
You can't please everybody
Is correct
Wouldn't you agree?

But still it stings
Something about me
Did not pass muster
I should say
Thank my lucky stars
That someone so judgemental
Was like the trash
Taking itself out.
I may have prattled on
But that is my nature
My mind wants
To make sense of things
It's curious and open.
Would that I were closed
And had not a curious bone?
How could I live with myself?
Too many thoughts
Bottled up
It's true I could save them
Write them down
If need be
But I like the exchange
Of ideas that chatting
And conversations engender
And bring about.

Yes I a chatterbox
But I also listen too
My compassion and empathy
Can be considered
Top notch
I not just saying this
I feel for other people
Caring about others
Is instinctive.

Do you know
When I silent?
Perhaps when you are speaking
And I trying to absorb
What you are saying.
But if silence grows
Between us
That is what
Can be worrisome.
An awkward silence
I have been known
To plug it up
With inane chatter.

There are different
Kinds of chatterboxes.
The know-it-alls,
The knowledge snobs
Pretentious to a fault.
That is not me
I know my knowledge
Is never and ever
Will be complete.
Even an<b> education
</font></b>From the ivy league.
Does not make one
An expert in all things.
Humility and being humble
Along with candor
And an open mind
Are what my brand
Of Chatterbox contains.
Now to employ
A successful marketing scheme.

Independently Romantic Sounds Better Than Lonely

I tend not to start up the chat.
That's not really how it works.
Waiting's just a matter of fact.
I am missing out on the perks.

Your poem describes me quite well, I usually warn a woman that if she is interested, and if I am taing to much and she wants to shut me up, just grab me & kiss me, and I will !
