Somewhere... out there...

0 posted 2006-01-22 01:06 PM



air escapes the lungs...
bleeding through
fingertips...

raw...

from scratching
beyond the
surface of
emotions
buried too deep...
too long...

a final cry...
'help me'...
goes unheard...

and this?...
the
finale...

it is finished...

Vicky, this one hurts, Lady. It feels so painful.
I so hope this is just writing and not the way
you're really feeling right now.

I do know that you are capable of writing on ANY
subject you so desire.....remember the "Paper Clip"
poem? One of my favorites of yours!!

I do think a lot of you, Vicky. You are a
very good friend to have, you know.
With love and heart hugs to you,
Ethel

I'd begun writing something very similar to this earlier this morning.  In fact, the words "help" and "unheard" were used.  Then I got a phonecall.  
Hope the day looks up...
