My heart once again wants to touch
that place where we both resided
in such a harmony
that I had never known before,
but that place has been locked away
so deep inside~

no longer can the sun shine through
the darkness of feelings betrayed
and now my heart...

my heart pleads with me
to allow that door to be opened
again
to that place where love~

love was so innocent~

and my soul weeps      with longing
to find      that key
to unlock     that fear
and it whispers to our love
in gentle call~~

                    please, teach me....

{reposted memory...dedicated to all who have ever needed to know....}




When the rain falls down from heaven, it must be the angels cryin'
For all the sorrow in the world tonight
Pick up any evening paper
Turn on the 10 o'clock news
The devil's been so busy lately
That even God must get the blues
Yeah even God must get...
The blues
{sung by Jodee Messina}

There are so many ways one can be taught...
if one wants desperately to learn...

Nancy, Kari, sometimes perhaps the answer is found within never wanting to quit learning...
to always move on.
Me and my darn melancholy moments anyhow..

nicely done ma'am... to long for such doors to open again is to know that they exist.. and that leaves hope..

Not an easy place to be and you wrote it well.

as lovely as the poet that penned it....you do a heart good....luv ya

I've tried so hard to tell myself that you're gone though you're still with me
I've been alone all along..Now I'm bound by the life you left behind

I believe you are also a teacher,
Of many things, real and esoteric,
After all you are a mother and a poet.
This is not to say that any of us
Can not learn more.

Enjoyed the poem
