The cold
makes me brittle
and I take chances
that might break me.

But really
what is life
without some broken parts
because broken parts make noise
and I want you to hear me coming

so you can run
if you're scared.

~AHO~ PassingShadows,it is no life without the chances,there is no true joy without the hurts,there is no knowing safety without facing dangers. Live sister,laugh,sing,dance,and cry,it is this tells you, you are alive and learning!

hehehehe, can't tell you how this made me smile...sometimes I find myself being purposely abrasive, just to see if they will run, and....they usually do...hehe
and they stay only if things are easy...no responsiblity, nothing or no one to answer to...can't feel good about themselves unless they are in the arms of a woman????? Go figure...but believe me, there are men out there who are very confident, aware, and desire the same things you do....good solid, men who know the word fidelity....love to you

smiles and hugs...for a wonderful write

Even when your silent i see the glint of gold from your wings coming. All here to listen even when i'm silent.

I've come to realize that all the broken parts become pieces of who we are.  

Of course that is easier to say when you are looking back on things, not when those parts are being broken lol.

I'm 'way past fear....but I sometimes run for fun -- does that count?

....and of course, Rattled would be my last name, or three-fourths of it, more or less....I think I'm home free!
