the nights can be long
when reliving your past sins
some you cringe within

Cringe is really a great word in this expression Jerry.
I see you're still at the writing and fulfilling your greatest urge......Good at it too.
I haven't been here for a long time.

I know you haven't been here in a while, ethome. It isn't even close to being the site it used to be. Thank you for your kind words.

Well said, dear Jerry, the night is a dark screen and we project our innermost thoughts and worries on it. Maybe you could try to outweigh old sins (they are forgiven long since, trust me) with exciting and happy dreams of love ...

Yes, some nights are long, Jerry. Maybe we should both listen to Margherita.
