You stay in wintery melbourne now,
coping better with its cold
than your frostbitten spirits

Your web-logged words
spoke of your
addiction to life
as an overplayed CD
You hate to endure
the same old boring tunes,
but are afraid
to expand your repertoire

You confide in
flashy movie characters,
with their mind-numbing showcase
of how to engage happily in mobile lives

I relate to
your high tolerance for
the blank tv screen
who smirks unfailingly, after each show ends

I too place faith
in the remote odds of deriving
inspiration, solace, enthusiasm, what-have-you
from fictional realities

but i left your blog,
without leaving a well of words,
because i lacked the
intuition
to decide whether
a comment about kindred spirits
would be comfort enough

Heng...sounds as if you
were really into this person's
psyche...
not an easy thing...

and it makes me hope
all is well...

This had an unusual feel to it, I rather liked it, like stepping outside my usual box.

Happiness isn't something that happens to you, it's created from within you. Joy is a state of mind.

My friend, you are such a sensitive soul.
I enjoy your keen insight into the emotional layers that other souls reveal to you.

kaile -- not only was this a deep river of expression, but the flow of it was really nice....kind of sad, but honest.

Sunshine, yup, all is well. i just wanted to show her support because i relish in the watching of movies as a form of escapism. but i guess my words came out more melodramatic than i actually intended to.

huggies for your concern

thanks Susan, writing outside the box is one of the things i aim to do with my poetry, even though creativity isn't my forte. bummer! ha!

Kacy, i'm blushing from your compliment

hey Jo, i dig honesty. glad you think that this is true to the heart. recently read some of my earlier writings and can't help cringing, "gosh, i wrote so fake!". now, trying to play catch-up...

thanks all for your comments, muchly appreciated
