Between the Lines

I Am...


...On the edge of that plank
balanced for the moment,
though the power of thoughts
could breeze me to the end and over
if but for the pull of you.

...Bracing for the worst, always.
Lacking the strength to summon,
the challenge has worn me down
and I have lost all composure
now waiting for the panic to cease.


...Gone

"Love is not blind - It sees more and not less, but because it sees more, it is willing to see less."

You have matured to the point of esteem.

that could apply to so many.
