You love me silently and from a great distance, I am loud but don't care to fight the resistance of a self-made prison I myself once knew, I broke out recently and I need more of you. But you are there behind your bars and I'm far away dancing on stars, trying to find a love like yours, peeking into windows and rattling doors, trying to accept that you love silently, knowing you will never hand over the key. |

Interesting 'write!'... I am particularly fond of: "...you are there behind your bars and I'm far away dancing on stars, trying to find a love like yours, peeking into windows and rattling doors..." Applause!! |

Dear Passing shadows, This is a very interesting poem. I rather like it. Keep on rattling those doors, you might wake someone up. Love Bobby |

Passing shadows love often happens to complete opposites. They puzzle each other together. This was a delight. Keep peeking in windows sharyn "God made you as you are |

"But you are there behind your bars and I'm far away dancing on stars," ~ Gosh, Dixie, this poem would make for great country song lyrics! May you find the key to open a very loving, kind and adoring heart. ![]() Linda |

Dixie - Some people don't even know what a "key" is let alone where to find it but we can love them anyway even from a distance. It certainly doesn't do any harm. Hugs Helen |
