Listening for a silent sound
Touching air and feeling your skin
as we fall into Egyptian linens

So many secrets from afar
Dimly lit in distant thoughts
as you rest easy within my heart

Awakening without you against me
is surely among my harshest realities
leaving me to dream once more

...and ponder


...just bein' Bluesy

The reality of life and love is harsh indeed..therein lies the bittersweetness of dreams.

Your poem tugs ever so gently...

You're appreciated and I thank you.

Bluesy,
You do bittersweet better than anyone I know. You have painful twinges mixed ever so carefully with the love. ~L

Many thanks, Lori Rhoden for your compliment.

Regarding "painful twinges mixed ever so carefully with the love"...we all have some of this, haven't we? I know you deal with this 'mix' every day.
