The heart
Beneath my chest
Beats wildly
For the unknown
That I know
For the stars
That shine for no one else but me
When I touch your dreams
Silent is the night
Dark is the day
When I close my ears
To the things you never say
You are close
But so far away
It’s meant to be
But isn’t meant for yesterday
The truth speaks in riddles
In short choppy sentences
Your heart carefully
Crosses its T’s and
Dots its I’s
You tread gently
But you did not
Tread gently
When you spoke
The words
That made my glass shatter
Before me
It was once half full
Its shards pierce reality
Now that I had a taste
Of our short lived destiny
You claimed in haste
That you loved me
I in haste
Believed the same
You are close
But so far away
My sense of clarity
Overwhelming me with a sense of security
letting me down gently
You and I
Will never be
This is not our destiny
Two lonely souls
Drifting aimlessly
Never meaning to cross paths
Only to flirt dangerously
With vulnerable emotions
Our lips will only touch
In dreams
You and I
Will never love in reality
You and I
Were only meant
To touch briefly…


If at first you don't succeed destroy all the evidence that you tried.

There are friends for life ~ and there are friends of the road who come in to our life for a reason and then move on.

I believe that you and he were the latter. You were together for a moment in time ~ at a time when you needed something from the other.

May your next friend be one for life!

Loveya!
Linda

'You and I
Were only meant
To touch briefly'


... sometimes the briefest touch makes the most memorable of memories~

Something says to me that this touch will
last an eternity of time..and always be
the tick that make the tock..so to speak.
