My soul aches to breathe
The air of poet's mind
Inhaling kindred winds
Of heart felts shared
Exhaling gratitudes
For reading and being read

Holding my breath now
Waiting for what will never be
In the tainted air here
Gasping in love and security

you portray ( or seem to ) a dichotomy of thoughts.... your soul in one place and perhaps you in another...

to yearn for something is human, to find it..extraordinary...

enjoyed your words here ma'am, and think you captured something a lot feel or have felt.

My body is in a compromised position where I can't write openly here.  What I do here is on the down low. shhhhh.
