Fighting you quiet like lightening, for I haven't the words. So easily you speak of the lies that bind the day, as you thrust through the branches like a wisp of air while I struggle. I rise with the steam of your tunnel, growing weary of the distance still bondage, and you say that it is merely because I am silent that I am chained. So I see her hands create the Earth on which you stand, and I wonder if my chemicals are enough to disrupt a signal and make my own, stable enough to hold you softly and better than her bones. And not knowing if a secluded voice is enough to calm your waving limbs. Giving you a taste to see if it is fine enough to persuade you to stay or come closer so that I can breathe your warm. |

I acutely feel the pain she fees. Reading this makes me want to offer comfort in some way. Her vulnerability is breathtaking. |

This such sensual angst, megs... (and yes, I do write a lot of bad ones--as I told a friend, I write kinda like Babe Ruth used to swing a bat--he struck out more than he hit home runs...um, I think.) But you are totally captivating. |

An intriguingly sensuous write, conveying deep longing mixed with a touch of self-doubt, that of course has no reason to be. Love, Margherita |

This line: "...it is merely because I am silent that I am chained" I was disappointed that no one else pointed it out because it's so profound...that isn't a subjective opinion, it's a fact.. wonderful piece of brilliance. "too bad ignorance isn't painful" |

'So I see her hands create the Earth on which you stand, and I wonder if my chemicals are enough to disrupt a signal and make my own, stable enough to hold you softly and better than her bones' You are some poet. |
