What Heart?

I feel so disengaged
as if the world has tucked me away
into a tiny corner of my closet
no longer any use for me,
the dust filling all the empty spaces
my heart deflated as its worth
is reduced to a figment
of my imagination.

Torturous, this, M.
I enjoy reading you, regardless, and always look for you here.

Maureen, this made me hurt. It really
touched me. I've felt this way before
and it doesn't feel good at all!!
Hugs to you

Clean out your closet and then get out of there...there are people that appreciate soft hearts...James

so many to thank...

some days I am out of sorts...and "stuff" just won't let me alone unless I spill it out.
This was one of those days...trying to "be there" for my sister, babysitting two young
often misbehaving children for 8 days
and this darn ugly mystifying fog and rain that has permiated every pore, until I sweat its warmth from me...

SO I thank all of you for putting up with me when it seems that nothing but the naked truth escapes me before I have a chance to reign it in.

M

p.s. and Kraw'...I appreciate the looking out for me.
