I'm going away For how long I don't know I just know I need time To heal an empty heart So I'll go somewhere warm Somewhere in my mind. Someplace without you Without the memory of your kiss A place south of nowhere Where dreams don't exsist And I can forget Somewhere in my mind. Maybe I'll fly Like an eagle, wings flared To a distant mountain peak To hide untouched By all that you were Somewhere in my mind. Or maybe I'll drift On soft ocean currents Adrift on an empty sea Where every word doesnt remind me Of the man I thought you were Somewhere in my mind. Somewhere I'll find A place without you Where days can just pass Without anger and pain And I can be free Somewhere in my mind. |

Seems so very sad for a day of love like this. I hope you find that peaceful place in your mind and it brings you comfort. |

I'll echo inot2B and add...I think I shouldn't want to go where there are no dreams for without dreams, where would we be? Very well-written piece with strong emotion, and we do need escape every now and then, to go apart, to rest, meditate, consider. find away to love again. |

I don't think I have such a forgetting place in my mind... but I wish you peace in finding yours. *S* Well done! |

'Or maybe I'll drift On soft ocean currents Adrift on an empty sea Where every word doesnt remind me Of the man I thought you were Somewhere in my mind.' Excellent penning of such a hard thing to deal with...great write...I like it! sp  everytime I close my eyes, I see your face, I taste you on my lips... every night I fantasize that I can feel you on my fingertips... |

We definitely see the color blue beneath your letters of red...hiding away in this loveless lament. Good Work! Robert Joseph |

Paula dear heart, this is utterly totally excellent, beautifully written. The depth of emotions are wonderful, and the imagery far surpasses anything else. I could really see all this dear heart, truly magnificent. How many more times I am not biased, it is utterly fabulous Love and stuff Take care as always Mushy  Take back the hope you gave,- I claim Only a memory of the same Robert Browning |
