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 education
From the ivy league.
Does not make one
An<b> expert </font></b>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 !
