Oh, you..

You I'd forgotten about.

The things you've owed me,
I have
let slip my mind.

I suppose it's the same
on your end..
You've brought out your
cards again..

But you,
have you found what you've been searching for?
The warmth of a body on
sunday morning, kissing your eyelids
as you sleep?
Have you found this true love as
it's found me?

It's funny how, time progresses in
an even, scenic, "in limbo" drive.
That no longer do I care for my material
belongings as I have found
a reason to breathe.

I apologize, again, for existing at all..
My mind will stumble along the way as
it has done for an eternity, already.

I feel sorry
for ever letting myself hold such a place
in your pre-battered heart..
You've treated me all the same..
And such is life, a habitual need to pass along
the hurt we've felt in the past.

Such
is
life
to want
another
horribly written
chapter
in this
drawl of a book.

So
you never speak to me anymore.. though
you know
I'm here.
And I assume, that you suppose,
I'm angry at that.
Tis not my fault, you are mostly incorrect,
that I've got a hurricane
of un-need for you..
For in his
bed I've slept..more soundly,
and comfortably..
than your stretch of highway bones
could ever pillow..

Acessing a molten sky, you

you will find out soon..

that moving on, that's
what I do..
since I left you.

Your words blend the understanding of the feelings once there, now, denied, and the vitriolic taste of swallowing once more the thoughts..

not bitter in your presentation exactly, but caustic in the scrape fo the time against now and abraded in the terms you use to describe..

a tender moment of kissing eyelids
says it all as to what is gone...

you write exceedingly well... and far above the talent levels of most, myself included...

always a pleasure to read you... and as I have told Gemma... good thing I am an old fart, or you two would drive me nuts...
wanting more.

(big hugggsssssss) And wen the skies are molten, nothing has really disappeared, just changed and when change is imminent, so is motion and accepting it is one big step to finding that something in return! (sigh) You write with pure heart, sweet friend, I really admire your ponderings, we all love you so much! You have such a beautiful heart, sweet Meghan, than you for sharing!



May love and light always shine upon you!

Love,
