Lost in thought

0 posted 2002-12-23 07:39 PM



(this was kind of a spur of the moment write which doesn't necessarily reflect my exact thoughts.. but just what I was thinking at the time)

Another step;
I hear your footstep.
With my breath,
I hear your call.

Disappear;
It’s my time now.
Even goodness,
Sometimes haunts.

I can understand,
A friend is always there.
But once I’m torn
It’s me, not you.

I don’t want you
To feel my pain.
It adds to mine.
I am guilty.

Loneliness,
Is comforting.
Can you understand?
I stand and fight.

If that is not enough,
Please then come.
I ask and beg,
But let me meditate.

Let me seek power,
From the One
Who fights
Through me.

Don’t feel my pain.
The base is covered here.
And silence soothes
The ache.

- And so it was that time stood still -

I think you penned your thoughts very well.
And for a spur of the moment,  it is worth
a lifetime...

GG,

Yes, even goodness, sometimes haunts.
I understand this. To this day, feel the same. It hurts me to know someone is hurting for me.

Enjoyed,

Happy Holidays, Pat

..without surrender, be on good terms with all persons..
