When in night you sleep, and I do not, when your dreams feed from memories woven into tapestries with threads of tarnished pride by needles drawn of shame, when your soul aches from dearth of joy and yearns to weep for all long gone beyond landmarks traced in scars time begot with casual bitterness, I watch over you. ©2008 by icebox |

The green silk pajamas were my sister's. ? Between you, and that Virtual Earth thingie, I feel a need to clean my room. |

"when your soul aches from dearth of joy and yearns to weep for all long gone" Well, in fact, icebox, I DO weep. Less now than before so I suppose I've progressed to the "yearn to weep" stage. One day there will be none of that. Your words are moving as always. Helen |

"woven into tapestries with threads of tarnished pride by needles drawn of shame" ...cool phrase "in scars time begot with casual bitterness" ...so deep, so pithy |
