I don’t want to think
I don’t want to feel
even good things

there is no right side
to get out of this bed

they must think me weak
only I know the will
that stopped the break
till now

I’m tired
I need to sleep
alone

(big hugggssssss) I can feel a little sadness behind these words, sweet friend, I hope everything is alright and all you want is just a nice peaceful rest to get the day started! (sigh) This is wonderful, sweet friend, we all love you so much! You have such a beautiful heart, sweet Duncan, thank you for sharing!



May love and light always shine upon you!

Love,
Noah Eaton

You know what is strange? I know exactly what you're talking about here. Needing to sleep alone. I wouldn't know any other way of writing about it than this. enjoyed.

How grave is my condition, for I cannot find the words to say, I need you so.

~You know, I felt the cold ache of the outside in this,...how the reality hurts so much it calls for crawling and curling,...glad your porch is warm. *S*.

========================


not weak D-babes....its just that sometimes we give too much of ourselves away...
once again your words of less, say so much more..and hit home in places deep.
I know tired...you need a vacation ... or some company on that porch *S*
Im thinking you need the number of my moth travel agent

how about how good it feels to finally forgive you

I like the line about no right side to get out of this bed.
I have felt that way many times.
Good write, Duncan.

Duncan,
I'm with SEA, sleep alone...really? Not this boy. But I could do the porch alone. Very well expressed sentiments.

Does Duncan want us all to mourn 'till morn with him? Then we'll catch him laughing over Krispy Cremes and a Latte on the porch swing.  But I do like this mournful tune. I almost got up to get you a blankie. You are good....really good. And JM's reply is tooo funny. What happened when you dialed that M number?
Hugs and mugs of warm cheer to you.

Duncan,

   Ya know, I'm starting to think you really are able to read minds. Once again, you have penned exactly what I think and feel.  How do you do that????  I can REALLY relate to this right now.

Hugs,
Tara
