Oh, my soul aches My heart cries. To need something Just to breath. To feel your touch. Kiss your lips. I am lost, Find me in this fog. Take me away. Throw away these ties. Take me, Where the moon never sleeps. Where hearts riegn. Touch me. Feel me. Love me. I tried..I hope I succeeded Isis. I don't think I like free form. |

I thought it lovely, Marilyn. I think the lines Take me where the moon never sleeps quite enchanting ------------------ The only man worth your tears will never make you cry... |

Thankyou caroline. This is my first try at free verse. When you are used to rhyming it is difficult not to. |

Great job! ------------------ It matters not how strait the gate; How charged with punishments the scroll; I am the master of my fate: I am the captain of my soul. --W.E. Henley Visit my poetry website: www.geocities.com/Paris/Musee/9954/ |

Balladeer...from you that is high praise indeed. Isis challenged me to do free verse. I have never written in this style and it was interesting. My first try was a flop and I trashed it. LOL |

Tada!! Wonderful job!! It's scary when you are not comfortable trying free form. I was so hesitant trying it too. You passed with flying colours. It's beautiful! And don't you feel better for trying something new? I did, at least. If you like we can challenge each other!! I'm up for it if you are!! Well done friend.. ------------------ A hero is a man who does what he can. ~Isis~ (The Fragile Rose) |

very nicely done ------------------ It is better to be silent and be considered a fool, than to speak and remove all doubt. |

I thought that was really lovely. And for your first attempt at free verse, it was fantastic! very talented! (and just think, I can't rhyme for anything, so you must have something over me!!!) *grins* Well Done Marilyn |
