I ache on Tuesday nights because I did not get my Monday love. On Wednesday's I get paranoid-- because I feel a throbbing void. And yes, it is quite possible for emptiness to fossile us humans into what was love, in layers of the pain of dust impacted by the stomping of our foot upon the wanting's was of how it used to be (so sweet) I love you. I hope you love me. Forgive me, for my little rhyme. I miss you love. I miss you, "MINE". I won't pretend that this is art-- just another bloody heart that Hallmark would not pay me for... I love you, love you, love you more. I thought that was impossible; but ask The Bear, and fishrock too if I'm not a faithful tear rolling down your cheek--I'm HERE... sending you my troth. |

Whoaaaaa! Karen! Talk about a Hallmark moment, this is a Karen snapshot. And rhyming too. I love it, I love your heart and very active brain power. ~*~ If they give you lined paper, write sideways. ~*~ |

a perhaps all-too-common set of human experiences well captured in this 'write'! ... that 'only the lonely' might truly understand and appreciate. |

"And yes, it is quite possible for emptiness to fossile us humans into what was love, in layers of the pain of dust" Great lines as are all the rest. It crys real poetic blues girl. I'll call those Hallmark jerks and set them straight. After all, a girl's gotta have her pay for such pain. Eric true love never looks after it's own interests |

Hallmark can't handle this much truth. *S* Or maybe they just don't want their stores to face lawsuits from all the "slip and falls" on aisles filled with tears. Understanding... and sending ((((HUGS)))) |

Beautifully written and so pain filled it reminds me of that longing, that yearning that aches throbbing like a toothache which nags constantly. Wonderful piece so well constructed I love it x as always Mushy x x x x x x x Tomorrow is another day I don't know what it holds |
