Within It's been at least a five year cost maybe more... can't remember when all my world came tumbling down. It was (I think) September. At first I closed myself in tight. Shut the doors to all. Eventually the sun would shine, as the outside world would call. I traveled far in those five years, a few setbacks but then who has not as years have passed. One starts the move again. Today I feel the strain of it. The toughness wears me out. His words surprised me, hurt me more now that his move's in doubt. I can't go back, I can't retreat. I've stood my ground so far. I want what's best, a selfish me, I'm struck with words bizarre. I should have known since he's still here, in loft of barn out back... Never left except six months in all that time of lack. Sighing now through fighting thoughts, my freedom's looking thin. When finally I'm feeling good he's trying to get "within".

Dear Maureen, sometimes it just happens like this! It's quite a dilemma, but if you listen to your heart, maybe your "freedom" could be reinterpreted. Intense feelings beautifully expressed. Love, Margherita  |
