I poured my heart out on you in my caresses but you didn't feel my tears fall upon you as you slept My lips couldn't kiss your skin deep enough to satisfy my longing for that lost look that special touch you had for me I held you close until you began to twitch and jerk in your dreams It was as if my loving touches brought you nightmares I poured my heart out for you on my pillow so you wouldn't hear my tears fall for you as you slept LGR(C)9/18/13 |

Alison, I'm a very punny person myself, there is nothing to pardon. Thanks for the read and kind words. Lori |

this really comes across the page in the deepest spot where the heart feels that loss where love once lived sad, but good |

Emma, Tragic but true, I believe love still lives here, it is just locked in a dungeon wasting away waiting to be rescued while we argue over who lost the key to the dungeon door. ~L |
