breathless… aimless… soaring
   just wanting to be free
looking… searching… wanting…
   for cues I cannot see
wanting… needing… yearning…
   to unearth the real me
holding… saving... keeping…
   the hope of what could be

Splendid poem rosepetals, within the confines of which I discovered this:

"to unearth the real me".

For me and my thinking, you know who this is and yet, for reasons of your own, have until recently decided to "unearth" or otherwise release yourself from some self-imposed bondage. It takes a good deal of courage to do that. Let nothing or no one stand in your way.


Au Revoir

Here's to you and here's to me and should we ever disagree, here's to me!

Thank you for the nice words Mr Martini. It's been some time since I have posted anything here. My muse doesn't seem to visit much these days.

Unearthing me is a battle that I have been having for a very long time. I hope to win it one day.

The struggle is in your eyes and your smile my dear. Pardon my presumptuousness, but I believe it to be so. Visits here may be therapeutic, if not addicting. Desiring to write expressive poetry is a show of strength.

I for one, as I know others will too, will be watching for you.

I used to post here years ago as rosepetals25. I used to love to write, but as I said, my muse has vanished for a long time. I used to love coming here!

Again, thank you!

It's very nice to see you back on our blue pages, dear Tara. And with a very poignant poem. Let the real you flow through your ink. The muse comes when you allow creativity to surface ...

Love,
Margherita
