somebody's dungeon

The day I met you
there was placed
within me
a need..

so intense
so enveloping
and all encompassing
that it controls
my every breath
taken in your absence..

a shallow breath..
a desperate attempt
to stay alive
until you return.

WhiteRose


Touch me with your whispers,
and I'll listen with my heart.

There's some serious love going on here! Well done. Chris

Life is not measured by breaths you take, but by moments that take your breath away.

VERY GOOD! I understand this quite well,
and you said it quite well ! ;-)

(smiles) Oh Anne, this is beautiful and I know what you mean because I love my Joanna so so much and yet I stay strong for her that I will have her soon! (sigh) This is heartfelt, sweet friend, we all love you so much! You have such a beautiful heart, sweet Anne, thank you for sharing!



May love and light always shine upon you!

Love,
Noah Eaton
