Patient Until Forever

I hear those voices again
chastising me
for living in a fantasy world
where believing in loving one,
was a foolish dream,
beyond my touch.

I have faded into myself
praying within,
my "sorrow for rent"
my happiness postponed,
as a princess I am not
and never could be.

I am in poor form,
my body matted in the sweat of tears,
with midnight coming too late
and morning too soon, trapped
in the wonderings of you.

Each day my world relies on fighting,
a springtime uprising needed
to move ahead from the fallings
of the past.

I have carved patience into my mind,
and the  meant to be's...if ...
are on repeat, just in case
my forever comes true.

Wordsighing today,
when the body craves,
the mind loves, and the patient until forever
speaks in colors, blue
in reflection thereof.

~A~ ( inspired by James_A_Fraser)

Bless you for this....

"Moved" is the only word that comes to me, and it is so inadequate to describe the feeling. I can't thank you enough.

Gets tiring waiting for those wounds that shape our life to heal.

You express so much, so beautifully.
It's one of those days, and makes me feel so sad.

This is wonderful... I love the whole... but particularly these lines... they speak me. *S* Beautiful work!

This is a wonderful write..so much enjoyed.
Hugs~

For it was not into my ear you whispered
But into my heart
It was not my lips you kissed
But my soul

Totally loved the whole thing but those two verses stood out for me...
