Dreamer By The Tree

Any Day now
The leaves will fall
And there will be nothing between us
Until the chill
Numbs my body

This blessed oak tree
Is no longer my home

-Juju

-"So you found a girl
Who thinks really deep thoughts
What's so amazing about really deep thoughts " Silent all these Years, Tori Amos

I love it. You are so exposed and vulnerable at the end and I sure have known that feeling.

But still you call it "blessed" and I love that. This is a most poignant write!

OWSa!

it makes me feel the bard ever so greatly

Whether on the shoal or on the shore,
I'll seek the lighthouse evermore.

Beautiful, beautiful, poignant as hell. Well done, feeling this.
