Looking at it hanging there on the wall, Letting a simple reflection Emerge to extend thoughts All around, the wind and sea, A distant horizon of simple shapes Times like this, nothing softer, nothing Less will do When you awaken, living life, Sometimes in a static Between stations, Between any answer you may hope to find Between lovers pondering, You search for something to hold onto A sunrise, a misty lake, A gentle evening wind Blowing you perfectly home The fingers of my soul Are waiting for a song, Like a hunger They become your name Words depart briefly From my lips Shifting deeper into my life, My heart wrapped in layers (still) Kissing sweetly The palms of my hands Reading your poetry, Speaking of rain dancing, Reciting each drop With closed eyes, Each trickle Watching it roll softly Hearing your words, Feeling your words Stir my emotions again So I place my heart upon My sleeve Once more, Beautiful in your presence The main character Of love but for how long? Step through the barrier of my mind, enter my soul, feel my desire, let my eyes guide you into the shadows of my heart [This message has been edited by Greeneyes (04-11-2002 06:05 PM).] |

Between any answer you may hope to find Between lovers pondering, You search for something to hold onto A sunrise, a misty lake, A gentle evening wind Blowing you perfectly home The answers are hard to come by, for all that we seek and the love that we miss. Lauren, your poetic words stir my thoughts in the nicest ways. Hugs to you~ |
