Saluting with misty eyes

Thoughts composed while sitting alone at the computer on a starry Autumn evening wishing the words would come
with apologies to William Wordsorth for the title

Sitting bereft, I fidget with my gold watch
Not looking
Not caring of the time
Time that was taken from me
By the actions of my soul
I sit alone
Waiting Watching Wondering
Was it me
Was it you
Was it ever a reality
Or just another dream turned against me
In a moment of weakness
As I sit
Pacing the world in my mind
My vision becomes blurred
As the tears fall freely
Washing away the dreams of you
Again

This was inspired by Dominique-Simone in the request for phrases by our little PdV. Thank you both for the help in kicking my Muse in the... well... for giving me the inspiration.

Absolutely adored by these eyes. This is so in step with my life. It is incredible to read something that has you nodding "yes, that's it exactly".
Ok, I'm done now

Hi, Ringo! Well, that must have been some kick that they delivered to your derriere!

"Was it ever a reality
Or just another dream turned against me"

Giving you a warm, welcome-back hug,

Brad, I do this so often... "the composing while sitting alone". Some days I force myself to dream or see things differently... just because I need to.

Thank you for the kind words you left for me, but it is I, who is learning from you and all the others.

All writers sit and wait for the Muse to come and kick us into gear. Whoever your muse was, I hope you thank them and bow at their feet. Beautifully thought out and easy to follow. And the final thought caught my attention and touched my heart. I hope one day to have a man shed even one tear for me.
