On the edge of forever

0 posted 2003-12-06 01:01 AM



Sitting in the lamplight
my mind wanders to you…
softly…
gently…
achingly…

I trace
the paths of
my memory
to find the seat of
your soul…
That shining
radiance
that warms,
protects,
and
loves.

I listen
for your heartbeat
tattooed onto
my own…
An eternity
in the making;
while the
forever past
is just a small
hiccup in time.

I feel
your presence
as the electricity
shivers down
my spine.
I know you
are here…

But where
am I?

This I know as Truth...we are all Beings of Light.

Nice write.  I love the line:

"I trace
the paths of
my memory
to find the seat of
your soul"

Nice use of words.

Those memories will get you every time, won't they?  Nicely said, Jaicie.

Aahhhhh....Jc....that's the question.
Where am I?

And the answer is...we vanish...in the fullness of something larger than ourselves.
We simply vanish...into who we really are.


Beautiful!

Lone Wolf...yep...they can certainly get to you.

My dear Eric...you know my heart and my soul better than I do!

Thank you both for your comments.

And...thanks for the "bump" Dix!!!!!  You're the best!

Love and Light...jc
