I shouldn't,
Still,
I might.
If i didn't,
Who would i be deceiving more?
You or I?
Don't want to give in,
This plan,
Where i reassure,
Myself.
Bury shallow,
Occupy the thoughts,
For a short while,
'Til conciousness arrives.
Tired,
Of imagining,
Sick to the bones,
Of waiting.

learning each day, for you and i, our paths have met, i've already learnt that you are love.

and it's the waiting that is the hardest of all. I enjoyed this, as it molds itself to each individual's situation, and that is what makes it special!! Great write, and I see you are fairly new and we haven't met, so let me say that I look forward to seeing more from you!!  ~~S~~

Pen how you truly feel...
it is a safety-valve for the soul!

(sigh) Oh Gemma, this is touching, sweet friend, my heart goes out to you as I understand this waiting all so well and it can be so difficult! (sigh) God Bless You, sweet friend, we all love you so much! You have such a beautiful heart, sweet Gemma, thank you for sharing!



May love and light always shine upon you!

I enjoyed reading this.

You've expressed it well.
