Thoughts on a Friday Afternoon There you are hiding behind words, breaths a bit stale as you feed the same, hoping it can still "tame a restless heart". How can you compromise with love when blinded by the moments of eyes wanting the same, but lips wanting more? Still, words replacing the emptiness, while eyes read into the soul, with the pounding louder than yesterday but memory holding desire back. This is for you, and you, and you who believe in the lyrics of life, holding onto forever thoughts and tomorrow's gifts. M "Love is not blind - It sees more and not less, but because it sees more, it is willing to see less." |

miscellanea, thank you...my life is pretty average if you can take the "soap opera' part out of it iliana, well I saw a title somewhere that stuck in my mind... and was the basis for the poem. The heat makes it tough to be inspired lately. Thank you. JamesM, thanks SEA and Hope so nice to see you here and what is there to look forward to without "hope"? M |

Hi M, I thought this was a wonderful piece, that we here can all relate to, hiding behind the words, confiding in the words, our wishes, our hopes, our dreams are shared with a community of pen friends, pictures shown, much unknown but together we get by and share our ponderings and thoughts on life, I enjoyed yours my friend very much, thanks for sharing. Rick |

"This is for you, and you, and you who believe in the lyrics of life, holding onto forever thoughts and tomorrow's gifts." Well said, Maureen. If we don't hold on to the thoughts, there's no chance of "tomorrow's gifts". Tomorrow, of course, IS the gift. |

oh wow M, I love this. One of your best ever I do believe. The closing lines are perfection. And? It reminds me (for some reason that I haven't pinned down yet) of that song from rent "measure your life in love" Adored this one lady. |
