Between the Lines

By Design

Slowing down without a care
aloneness filling up the spare
of time and thought, no glitter words.
A voice is met with sound unheard...

The days go forward, tasting cold
when thief has stolen what was old.
Fashioned in the nighttime dreams
this loss of time, not as it seems...

More of meaning than one can see
when mind is closed to what could be.
There's truth of yours and truth of mine
behind closed doors, within each line.


To quiet moments by design...
Waiting, always, for love's define.


M

It seems time does whatever it wants,
while we think we possess it,
it actually envelops us.
But our memories and thoughts
can come and go freely,
without time's contraints
on love or other emotions.

I like the soft touch in this, M

Sometimes it happens and sometimes it does
not.  Patience and perspective...One day
will be that day.

Wow.  A lot said in so few words.
Enjoyed.
