Posted: 11/13/2007 7:07:33 PM | big deep breath here
exhaustion and anxiety
both fighting for first place
neither will trump nor triumph
as my soul has other designs
this day especially
i began this thread
so long ago so
herein seems
the best place
to let each of you
who's deeply touched
my heart and life
how very much
your kindness
has meant to me
this evening i feel
like i guess alice
must have felt
upon falling down
that rabbit hole
yet still i know
i can regain
myself again
if but through
a complete
lifestyle change
if it is meant
for me to heal
today a day
like others in
the fact that
all of them
are such
sometimes melting
into one another
other times
so different
they seem to take
a precedence
weather here
absolutely gorgeous
in the high 70's
unusually warm for us
even in the desert
for this time of year
but for me
today is different
i just got back
from my doctor
appointment was
at 2:15, lasted till 4:45
still in shock here
so much more is not right
so much more
than i initailly
could have fathomed
my body it seems
is turning against itself
weird dichotomy
even for me
organs i've taken for granted
thyroid, pancreas and adrenals
all severly compromised
a ratio of f a severly compromised
immune system is an 8 and results
indicates i'm operating at a 13.5
i can't believe i'm admitting here
much less that this is happening
somehow because my intestines
and "gut" are so deficient
i'vee caugh a parasite
yesi said BUGS
because my sytem is
so weakened
at least month's worth
of lots of meds daily
bugs i can't comprehend
but i can only laugh
in this, the sheer terror of
all this means to me
(and no they aren't contagious)
pre hypothroidism
pre diabetic
compromised
immunological response
that makes me react
to so many chemicals already
that i'm at the grace of His will
that these many therpaies
i'm facing will be tolerated
by my sytem so i can actually
take them to regain vibrant health
my bp was 159 over 109
not at all good but at least
i had just a touch of fever
i'm not even feeling like
my system is THAT bad
isn't THAT weird?
other test results
indicate what doc said
3 times looks like
colon cancer
she said she
can't believe i'm working
much less walking
being this ill
physical therapy
to be ordered
just so i can have
the stress relief of massage
a few times a week
so i will focus on having
some things to look forward to
in this journey of regaining
my good health.
i'm still reeling here
this is heavy duty stuff
for me but i know i can do
better with a complete
lifestyle change
apparently i'm both a
medical marvel and
miracle both, so far
just hours ago i've
been given so much
information, pamphlets,
presriptions, orders for
supplements in high doses
and even yet more tests
to schedule now
some of the meds prescribed
weren't even at the pharmacy
others have already been
ordered from local labs
because they can't be
procured from pharmacies.
in the midst of this
i know life is full of tests
and trials of our souls
while i face a large one
i want each of you
to know how very much
the kindness and love
i've felt from so many of you
has so often warmed my heart
eased my pains this all
just really means
more than i could ever impart
in simple words but at the very
very least i want to thank you
each of you so dear to me
and now especially so
blessings love and light
i wish for each of you tonight
for reading
for sharing
for kindness
and your friendship
extended me here
both far and near
i treasure so many
of you so dear | |

Posted: 11/13/2007 8:05:51 PM | Such courage and grace
combined in one
surely makes all bow down
not only in awe,
but in fervent prayer
that you remain as strong
as your poetry
as strong as your
word.
Light forever find you
in the mystery of love
let the magic carry you forward
let the waves of us keep you afloat
let us keep flowing toward each other
past the suffering and to the awakening
that we are all here to offer you blessings
in this golden stream of life
on the softest edges of love
you are still purely perfect
you are still the softest glow here
and the chains of love and hope
will bind us heart to heart
soul to soul
til your perfection is as visible to you
as it already is to us. | |

Posted: 11/13/2007 8:26:45 PM | It’s funny when life takes its course
And leaves you with such little remorse
A twist of fate and trying times
Wishing one could pull the blinds
But the days that come will fill the mind
And take you away from the gentle grind
Passion for life will fill your days
Then will come, the sun’s beautiful rays
Time will pass and days go by
A distant memory of wondering why
You’ll look back and understand
That in this life you are a grain of sand
A small portion of something great
And life’s path is best left to fate
Not to wallow within your mind
And everything will become aligned
You’ll be feeling strong and soon begin
To forget the pain and start to grin
Go about your days on this fine earth
Cherishing your life upon this rebirth

Posted: 11/14/2007 8:41:07 AM | hey sis...similar to you
strange things are happening
neither needs a psychic
it's all real
damn the man who questions?
I do not wonder
OF course I do
I drift along
Preferring to hold on to love
You chant and I dream
Wish someone would
Explain the difference to me
I KNOW ..it’s why I never posted
the last few lines…
I wish you knew how scared I am too
I hate being and pretending am the fool
If msn allows me to send this
I’ll be scared to ever answer you again
I will need more than a shrink
Someone pass me another drink?
I gotta to rhyme ...it's poetry afterall?
the candle burns
and when the light is almost set
he'll say I remember her name
will I still be alive?
to admit I love you
or
did I die
without my missing link?
no shrink admits to other WISE | |

For words I would not have shared
Cuz I did not dare . . .
But ya rekindled my heart . . .
And encouraged to dare the art . . .
A year later . . . "Wordplay"
I try day after day . . .

~PERFECT GIFT~
I have a PERFECT gift
So very precious I hold within my heart
Bestowed by my Father
I did nothing to deserve it
I did nothing to earn it
A costly gift no secrets it beholds
As I get older the dearer the gift
For I value the wisdom for peace and harmony it holds
A precious gift I cannot but shared
For His mercy is un-measurable
And His grace unsurpassed
His forgiveness uncompromised
PERFECT is His gift
For there are no strings attached
A gift that offers security on my dying bed
Confused some will be of the gift I hold
For they cannot understand I did not serve it nor earn it
Thus a PERFECT gift I hold!

Posted: 11/14/2007 11:11:44 PM | If we danced in a moment we both called knew,
and realized we thought like we often do.
Maybe we'd see the person,
and think ya thats me , just like you.
We could come together ,
and leave out the lies,
misconceptions and masks we wear.
We'd be us as one .
I'd feel your eyes behind your stare.
Think of you and everyone so aware.
I beleive we can overcome anything,
Todays right now, is your life, your moment.
and the tear i found on my cheek,
is for you, this moment, is always for you. | |

Posted: 11/17/2007 11:06:42 AM | Sorry I have not been around lately but i have been busy with work and other things.
I figured that i should pop in and say hello to everyone again.
And with that i will leave a few words behind.
I Look Upon Her
by Draven
I look upon her face lying on my pillow
Lit by the light of my bedroom window
Wrapped within my gently arms
Knowing she will come to no harm
I look upon her hair, soft and fair
Unable to find the words to compare
Answers she has given me in times of pain
That love and hope will visit again
I look upon her lips, moist and red
Giving me life when all was dead
She restored my heart when it was lost
Melting what was covered in frost
I look upon her breasts, firm and strong
Knowing that love could not be wrong
Slowly moving with every breath
Always knowing she was not like the rest
I look upon her hips, round and smooth
Gently touching not daring to move
I fix the sheets with delicate care
But a gentle kiss is all I dare
I look upon her face staring into mine
Filling my body as if it were wine
I close her eyes with gentle kisses
For she has answered all my wishes.
and for those of you who don't know.. yes my pen name is Draven. | |

Posted: 11/18/2007 8:17:34 PM | you are not
less than one;
you are multitudes
a fluttering of wings
with my not knowing why
you felt the need to leave
but i wish you well
my unknown
my undisclosed
friend
so kind your lines
thank you for
taking your time
leaving prayer
and kindness here
made my eyes leak
shamed i am
sometimes
after opening up
to be so bold
it wears on some
i've read their disdain
but they can just
get high again
they will not walk
in my shoes
nor me in theirs
as it should be
xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
triplebp i thank you too
knowing the trials you
yourself have been through
once again you are correct
i have no remorse
shall stay on course
beacons like those here
light the way most clear
nothing shall deter me
while i am feeling weak
indeed i know i'm strong
just another trial and test
life is ours to make best
choices we hold
of attitude and grace
it's a journey not a race
i babbled i know
that first day i learned
came here to let it out
i have found comfort
in so many's words
indeed a rebirth
a common recurring theme
befitting future's dreams
xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
ad dear i had no idea
and so sorry to hear
you too are on trial
it seems far across seas
you dream and i rant
difference being while
not all twins are identical
they can share so much
i'm grateful for you
you need no shrink
when i am well
we'll share a drink
laugh more than think
when time is right
this too shall pass
then we both will be
all the better, you n me
for what it's taught us
looking back we'll see
how much we've grown
unleashed of unknowns
prayers to you and yours
while candle burns bright
yet not as light
as friend's souls kindred
xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
myth you are an angel to me
always light playful carefree
your many gifts left herein
now you brought another message
clear and strong full of beauty
thank you for singing your song
indeed a perfect gift i do agree
His grace surely knows best
so much better than humble me
thankful am i to you for so much
more than simply "trying"
you in a year passed, you dear
are an angel sweetly veritably flying
xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
knatsabooh welcome
and thank you too
such beautiful possibilities
in your lines and heart
thinking ya that's me, just like you
we'd all be as one in the light
as the wind dances as sun kisses us
as the moon beams hug us too
as time passes tears will turn to
smiles gently playing into laughter
hearts and kindness know no bounds
helping others even perhaps strangers
means a new friend now is found
xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
draven thank you for your lines
i'm sorry things aren't always
as they seem in our dreams
let that not deter you from
always striving in and toward
your endless possibilities
we are each of us individually
ourselves but united by beauty
seen in one another with clarity
your light shines bright to me
xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
as this new week begins
i lay to rest some fears
crossing fingers here
meds tolerated now
2 days in a row
amazing thing for me
chemical toxins tiring
blurry vision weakness
forcing me to my knees
tingling in extremeties
hives and sneezing
despite no cold nor allergy
i rest to regain my immunity
acceptance now my goal
actions begun so far so good
reactions not intolerable
fever waxing and waning
heartbeat and bp racing
dutifully i swallow the pills
meditate to relax tenseness
one day down and two more to go
then the next round begins
for the rest of this my life
thankfully i lapse into
cherished future dreams
thankfully i believe
one day this all too shall pass
i'll again rise to do all i can
in strength with weakness
only a lingering memory
fmla paperwork
short term disability
yet to be all turned in
next new round of promised health
already sent to me via another lab
cold and safe in my fridge
awaiting my timing
doc predicts within two weeks
of beginning that 2 days from now
i will begin to again have energy
and renewed immunology
no death sentence for me
i shan't dare to believe that
for i have much work yet
left to be done in this life
as well as many blessings too
meant to be shared
meant to be dared
meant to be lived through
rlf mdj sjm kse
thank you too
for being here for me
i sincerely thank each of you
i don't think it probable
that any of you could
possibly know how much
your kindness has meant
to this my heart and mind
never to be forgotten
especially in this week
aptly time of thanksgiving
showing my heart each of you
patience and grace within you
helping me to infinity
yes though my body
may be weak
my spirit yet believes
in a small whispered word
hope
xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx | |

Posted: 11/26/2007 11:58:58 PM | Some inspiration for trying times.....
The light illuminates the darkened room
Enhancing the walls removing gloom
Brightening the spirit within its walls
Through the window extending its calls
Coaxing your spirit out into the light
A beautiful day for your heart to ignite
Enjoy the beauty of this brave world
A glass of lemonade carefully swirled
Breathing in the fresh desert air
Will do you some good to help you repair
Your spirit, mind and all that matters
Healing in time from all that shatters
Repairing your soul for another day
Where memories replace all your dismay
So enjoy the light illuminating your room
Spring from shadows that cover your womb

thank you for being here and please excuse my intrusion
as I interject words brought
back to me:
Time Takes
Time takes my hand,
it pulls me along.
I would remain a child forever
If Time would let me
be.
But it and I,
we have no choice -
only to go on.
Living is changing.
Nothing is the same as it was.
I am an ‘adult’ although still inside
I am a child wanting
to be taken care of.
I don’t know how to face
insecurities, frustrations, or doubts.
Time takes me on and every day
I grow a bit
I change a little
Time is relentless
It will grow me up.

Still working on it

Posted: 11/27/2007 5:55:40 PM | soft glow of candles illuminating
flickering light of burning tears washes over me in tranluscent shades of orange and gold....my shadow dances now in unicen...while the life of the candle drips in slow rythemic tears each moment lost for all time...I watch , losing myself in the liqiud flow..wondering what things may come....my whishes would be granted if I blew out this flame...but what then, would time stop..would all things...sorrow and happiness cease...what would I become without them...what life could I endure...would the lose be worth the wish granted....what wish would I wish...
a wish for others , their health and happiness, the joys to be replaced in their souls, in their hearts...a wish to end the pain and torment of my friends, to cease the suffering...perhaps I would wish for them a candle of their own...a place to meditate and discover...a place for their own wishes...perhaps I should blow out the candle, a give my wish for you
A golden flicker
light of life
tied to times gentle slide into the past
dance with my shadow
feel freedom
loose thyself in light

Posted: 11/27/2007 6:15:28 PM | Any one wanna talk about life?
Talk about love....?
Lost love........like the other part of the sun;
that doesn't shine , here in my side?
Like the footprints in the sand;
washed away....after the last wavetide?
Kind of like the last full moon;
the one that never glowed....like that again?
Maybe the last sip of wine....in the glass;
never gets drunk......cause I filled it ...up..again?
Like that long walk ....in the first morning snow........
I look back....see only .....my footprints?
No one to share it with!
No one to smile.....make snowangels ........
no snowball fight.......
just me.....and the light....glistening.....
like my soul.
That hot cup of cocoa..........just never has seemed the same!
All alone........
I return to ...........me. | |

Posted: 12/2/2007 12:24:52 PM | thank you tbp
for your illumination
onto sometimes dark walls
i'm slow to learning
in this present time
what goes down must come up
and vice versa
with so many unknowns
i have learned recently
using guided imagery
of soaring
of dipping
of flying
keeps down my bp
everytime i'm triaged
lately too frequently
all i can do
is my best
right now
that has to be enough
even for me
xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
thank you and welcome nefretiri7
please never believe words
are an intrusion, for
they speak of one's soul
they speak of one's mind
they speak of one's heart
they speak of one's yearnings
they speak of one's prayers
they speak of one's grace
and i thank you sincerely
for placing yours gently here
xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
shadow i thank you too
my heart knows you do
understand more than i
fathomed you to
thank you for the nudge
light love and blessings
i whisper for you
xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
thank you jules
for opening again
your heart like a flower
having received the rain
yet waiting for sun again
returning inside to self
is never a bad thing
it's sometimes protection
until one learns to bask
in your own rays
to believe and hope
for each new day
xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
i abhor accepting i have this
whatever it IS
IT seems to be
most difficult for me
to accomplish...
just another challenge
albeit perhaps
seemingly larger
and more serious
than others passed
life is of blessings and joy
yes; but also
of challenges and struggles
i surmise so that we may
appreciate our fullest
capacity of being human
for myself, with no family
this is a place where
i relinquish too much
this is perhaps a failing
yet while i know a few
are snide or avoid me altogether
because of it, that's ok
when i can, i post anyway
when i am moved to do so
because it's what i do
not to make anyone uncomfortable
but because it's who i am
there have been many times
i have avoided posting
because i've been so tired
or because i've felt
overcome or overwhelmed
or all of the above
other times i find
when i do have strength
i sense i'm construed as negative
but if that's the case so be it
i dearly appreciate
those of you who understand
your emails and posts
have lifted me so
and helped my troubled soul
more than you will ever know
xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx | |

Posted: 12/2/2007 8:25:21 PM | just a catch up
from tired me to even
properly catch up on emailing
admittedly feeling guilty
after the reprieve of a
shared roaring fireside dinner
and then a dvd which ended up
not being completely watched
last friday night wound itself
so beautifully into what became
all too quickly something else rapidly
yesterday a last week quickly
scheduled surgery
took up my day
and somehow then
ate up my weekend too
so now i try to rest
pushing negatives
from my mind
i'm tired of being
this sick and tired
it seems to be to me
a weakness inside
the kind i abhor
as if watching these scenes
from another place
i see my life unfolding
myth reminded me
just last week
this isn't just a bug
not a flu nor cold
i'm fighting here
she's such a dear
to understand
even when i haven't
had the strength
to really explain
it's obvious i guess
the fear showing
through so clearly
i admit yesterday
in the surgical center
i was relieved to be
put under to sleep
so bitterly tired am i
of these fears inside
working their way out
so many things wrong
so quickly all at once
internal bleeding
failing adrenals
failing pancreas
i'm not feeling sorry
for myself rather i am
angry at feeling such fear
being on this rocky ledge
losing part of salary to fmla
still so many questions left
unanswered in this brain
because my body's failing
i found myself awakening
coming out of surgery
crying and apologizing
suprised at this utter loss
of control of myself
the dear who drove me
waited patiently in the lobby
took me to eat afterward
i hated even asking
for such a favor
but last week they took me
grocery shopping too
i hate being such
a bother and a pain
just wanting to be
myself well again
but am most grateful too
perhaps the intended lesson
for me is one of humility
one i apparently
haven't yet mastered
quite well enough
to make sense of
looming and senseless things | |

Posted: 12/2/2007 8:35:21 PM | My freind....revel in the fact that someone is there for you! Humility is ....hard...when you always have tended for yourself! Let someone in...and know what an important person they are to you! It's Allright! This has always been hard for me ...too! Yet I am finding it is the only way...sometime! jules
I've had my falls.....
I may still have more.
Hope somebody is there for me....
when I am really feelin' done!
Nothin' like a brotha or Sista....to come on in...
when our souls feelin' cheated...
our worlds a little dim'
May all of us have someone like this...
tend to our hearts....
give us ....
a goodnite kiss!
If we cannot see the light of the day....
Someone we know....
comes our way....
sees this is not ....our way....
yet;
Comes on ....in to Protect!
Best wishes Angel girlfriend!
All will be better ....soon! | |

Posted: 12/3/2007 9:16:09 PM | Her I go again its all anew

with the holidays come so much enotion thats needed

so all is just great in this early date
donn't give up ever nr it is not to late
Take care of you for its all we have

Posted: 12/6/2007 1:32:24 PM | no worries angel julesy, friends are something i don't lack; and they are more than patient and kind with my me.
indeed i am most grateful for the handful of those i have around me
and yes angels they are, most assuredly
patiently showing their graciousness
always ready to help in multitudes of many ways
please do believe me; those near to me right now know fully what they mean to me
i am open and honest and blunt and Eeyor-ey and all other sorts of not so nice things
i worry too much and i fret and am impulsive with my tongue
but i'll stand up for someone with conviction of good triumphing over bad any day
for someone with integrity to mean what they say
one thing i've found by simple observation is to just let the nature of life take it's own natural course through myself and others
our day to day
life actions sometimes speak so much more loudly
than any mere words could ever convey
in other threads recently i've read comments about angels not being real
i am sorry for those without any glimmer hope or love in their lives
for their heart without a doubt to know of these attributes far worth more than any material tangibles
those are the ones too damaged to care
too damaged to dare to believe in the simplest of truths
or too apathetic to even care about htemselves anymore
i know a few like that they are as walking wounded; the undead
yet even for themselves and others too
possibilities in future's grasp aren't written in their past
and yes, for me... humility is a difficult thing
asking for help some times more trying than others
and yes, especially clear to those who know
for when you've mostly fended for yourself in the past...
yet to grow and learn is but the human condition
thankfully i'm still falling into that category
one of those yet who now knows
it's akin to the velveteen rabbit...
when one believes in something or someone; when one dares to dream
is oftentimes the most beautiful of times when clarity reigns and miracles occur right in front of you to prove themselves
amazingly touching your heart so strongly you can taste it
you can smell it as it takes over every ounce and sense of your being human
no one can disuade me of otherwise
for i've lived through & seen
too many beautiful things
from absolutely horrorific situations
the generosity of a heart and compassion or love
is always something to be treasured
never to be taken for granted or misused
no one is perfect; yet we are each perfect just as we are
in this moment right now
we've all had our spills and our spoils too
and likely will have more; it's true
nothing like the touching of a heart dear
to another to light a beacon clear
i'm learning still sometimes words aren't even necessary things
imagine me, believing that!
my posting rate could prove that easily
i am beginning lately to understand something
very important: fortune indeed favors the brave
xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
designs4u, yes you surely understand
but don't fret about knowing or wondering what to do
when the time comes, you'll know instinctively exactly what to do
your love is evident and i hope well spent in this season of all love
and will rejoin you tenfold in a thousand angel's fluttering wings
as a phoenix rising from ashes to take it's first breath of clear air
far above the smoke below now it can soar and grow even more brilliant
till it literally flies and dances seductively with the sun
you're wise to know and say don't give up it's never too late
i echo this back to you too, friend
so dear you are for your kindest words
my humble thanks extended to you
and you're right, there are many good both far and near
this thing i still fight, invisible yet but shall not win
although perhaps waxing and waning my might
i'm still alive and kicking
just like midge ure sang
all those many years ago | |

Posted: 12/7/2007 10:51:22 PM | Keep going girl yu got it right.
say what you feel turn night to day light
to be open and honest it's hard to find
sometimes its cruel and others its kind
for who wants a fake this day plain to see
not all are as dumb as I fend to be
for I love so much
that we all call free
not a word nor a voice its an action for me
I think way to deep for that I'm alone
but do I care no! a light I've been shone
not of this earth not far away
it's a chosen path that leads the way
as long as we all live our lives in love
no matter what goes awry today
there will be forgiveness from above so they say
Soooooooo Wahoooooooo Merry Christmas | |

Posted: 12/8/2007 12:00:35 AM | There is one more thing is it okay I add
its not mean its not ugly nor is it sad
It's called fun of thelife that we lead
it's enjoyment and laughter the things that we need
we can all pick on this and that thing is bad
but if yu can't laugh that is sad
it heals the heart and things get much better
so forget that dear john letter
out of bad pull some good
if you look hard enough
it's harder to frown it is so much more tough | |

Posted: 12/21/2007 4:14:57 PM | again, thank you, designs for your truths
merry Christmas back atcha too
this is quite an exquisite violet sky
this evening's purple fading firstly
to outrageous pink then orange hues
rippling to velvet blues
my mind thinking like always
of all yet undone this weekend ahead
mentally going through tasks laid out
running so often it seems
always stretching to seams
clock tick tocking faster
even than my own dreams
homemade hearty soup tonight
real stock n 2 chicken breasts
by request first go into the pot
bubbling merrily happily
wafting through the whole place
bay leaves fresh garlic and cilantro
shall i slice an onion or two
noodles twirling dancing
with carrots parsnip n fresh peas
big chunks of fresh garlic bread
steaming and savory making me glad
toss in peppercorns black and red
grind some too for good measure
salad yet to be made
organic spinach with kalamatas
manchego cheese
cherry tomatoes for me
toss in a few chick peas
vinaigrette oil of grape seed
a splash of garlic rice wine vinegar
sprinkle of sugar and sea salt
quick twist of my wrist
yields a grind of fresh pepper
i've already had my bath
i smell like citrus and kenneth cole
there's a log in the fireplace
sitting awaiting to be lit
and a tree too sits lonely
wanting to be dressed and adorned
all that's missing is your knock on my door
so i can swoop in for a sweet kiss
i hope tonight you're ready
to be fully completely adored
hmm what's for dessert?
because i have plans you'll see

I love the way you change your conversations into a poetic form. I find my eyes following the words down the page eagerly waiting for the next line.
Angels are indeed real and sometimes found in the most unlikely places. I know that here is a place where one abides constantly. Your kindness, gentle strength and encouragement touch all who read your words.
I was going to ask if angels have angels surrounding them as well. But the answer is evident within this thread. It seems that many angels gather here and offer support to one another. may you all be blessed with peace and strength in your time of need and may your lives be amazing. Thanks for sharing here.

Curiosity
Curiosity whispers.
What caused this incredible attraction?
How do I ease this longing
absence only seems to make worse?
Curiosity whispers.
How would it feel to touch you?
Taste your skin? Kiss soul-deep
and hold you through the night?
Curiosity whispers
and I wonder
if it whispers to you
of me?

Posted: 12/22/2007 11:18:44 PM | I know what you meen its not much to see
for I am alone no one but me
a tree for one it is much work to do
for two its a pleasure for each to see thru
To know there is love and kindness of heart
it makes for a spark for the fire to start
so lets put the lites on oh yes red,blue and green
put up at the top a btight star we'll all know what it meens
a soft touch of snow to your delight
has given a love that makes it just right
Just know that as I no matter how far
a friend you will have
just follow that star | |
