State of Suspended Passion

0 posted 2002-03-04 03:16 PM


living in the dream of things
stark
runaway lovers
gone to be with those they don't belong with.
I've chased the stars that lost their twinkle
and eyes that held my life's story
faded
and closed in betrayal
while my clouded haste tripped.
somewhere lives a me
who understands that she belongs
back where home once stood.
somewhere there stands a truth
stark
unblinking
standing in a fog of denial
waiting for me to reach it.
living in the dream of things
hating chances to be myself
for those times always pass too briefly.
could you drink of the thirst
I starve for
if the flavor were not your favorite?
could you share with me a sip
of peace
if it were not something you believed in?
If I could weild the power
to make you do things
you had lost hope in
could we be the two
who fought together
for the cause of God's plan
for this drowning world?
I believe that forever will hug us one day
pull us in a close game plan huddle
and sway our minds to moments unthought of
until love had grabbed our shirt collars.
My Darling
we were meant to do something together
besides love even
and I am desperately trying for open eyes
so that we may see our purpose
behind impossibilities
stark
I am dreaming of you
and trying not to waste away on self pity.
How long til we reach our island?

Quit fighting with yourself.  Elves aren't good at that

Fool, said my Muse to me, look in thy heart and write.

This elven princess
is a warrior at heart
always prevailing

Interloper and Sven. You certainly do make a lady blush. thank you.

And I'm quite good at fighting myself. I have good armor.

Fight not those fights Dear One, there is always better armor to use.

Thank you.

(sigh) Oh Siofra, I believe we all have ties where we feel as though we should blame ourselves or wallow in self-pity, I too have had these feelings a lot and still do evety now and then, but I know deep down you will reach your love and you are bound to share a lifetime of joy and promise together! (kiss on cheek) Never fight yourself, sweet friend, love yourself for who you are and believe in yourself always, for you are a very special person, we all love you so much! You have such a beautiful heart, sweet Siofra, thank you for sharing!



May love and light always shine upon you!

Love,
Noah Eaton

You’ve written the battle with self very well. Writing it is most of the way to understanding it. And once you understand, it’s easier to come to terms, and change what we’re not happy with. And, it looks like you have an extra suit of armour there to help win the battle

If she who dies with the most toys wins, then can I have some toy boys please?
