And inspiration Is sparce Varied But life's divine and endless course Carries me on it's current And I go along willingly Though expression has become so Empty in it's opulence I still dream I still love I take the good with the bad And the light with the heavy I smile when it overtakes me And frown when it becomes Dark, no longer Possessing that dreamlike quality That qualified it as art Tearing me apart Timeless and eloquent The freedom we pride ourselves on having Is so tightly controlled By inhibition and fear Power and danger are guiding emotions That rules us on our journey But so few can be honest About their presence And, still feeling the pain of Unrequited love and The end of a "timeless" romance I take the cowards stance And let them take me I give too willingly But I'm honest and forgiving I'll tell it all when I get there I never promise, I hardly swear But no one understand what I say I say it anyway In hopes that someday Someone will hear my call And find comfort in my voice, my words And I will be recognized, maybe even Understood- [This message has been edited by Rhiannon (edited 08-09-99).] |

Thank you Tim. I've always had the fear that I would become the love-striken teenage cliche in my writing, but I'm starting to feel more confident. You comments help a lot. [This message has been edited by Rhiannon (edited 08-09-99).] |
