pretty masks,these words, without faces behind, leaving me to feel as meaningless and hollow as they are. some seem to touch truth with a shy finger at the same time reaching the feeling me. But my mind is no longer lightened, my heart not quickened with inspiration's chill beauty,though rare,is treasured like a memory music,all I once knew fades through my ears in a painful reminder of what is now not. and still everyone's singing a song but no one's singing to me ----a bit scattered and confused,I know. |

Not so scattered for one who has been there and revisits still from time to time. It tells a tale of loneliness and dispair. Well done. Write the scattered thoughts down and they will piece you back together. Worked well for me. (If I misinterpeted this piece I am sorry.) |

Thanx guys,for the encouragement!Maybe it only seems scattered and confused to me because that's how I felt when I wrote it.I was going through a stage of depression that engulfed me for about a year when I wrote it.You were right in your assumption, Marilyn, depression and loneliness definitely go hand in hand. |

Mark: I understood it as well and I really liked it..  HUGS ------------------ You give but little when you give of your possessions. It is when you give of yourself that you truly give. |
