You possess the very soul of me... Do you know You hold me in the palm of your hand? You have the power to crush me, or to cradle me-- To warm me, or to leave me cold... You dwell within my waking thoughts. You frequent my dreams-- My dreams... I want to see you there. Will you meet me when i close my eyes? Somewhere in the misty corners will you lurk To ensnare me as i stumble past-- To hold me as you whisper, "shhh, Dont speak..." Not now-- the words will wake the moment. Dont speak. Dont answer. Just meet me in the shadows To take my body as well as my soul-- Or gently please return my soul to me... You hold me in the palm of your hand... --dgvarner "Half of what i say is meaningless; but i say it so that the other half may reach you." -Kahlil Gibran |

This was great ! Often I find my self wondering how other people seem to have so much control over our emotions and feelings, and stand in awe of the power they posess... |

starr: the power of possession is a mighty thing aye... but i guess in truth..we allow ourselves to be possessed..to hand our soul over for the taking..in longing perhaps..in hopes..waiting for dreams to happen..and wanting to help them along...its human! eL: thank you so much!..and i didnt realize my responses were helpful ..nice to know that they are tricks: shh..dont tell him about the roller coaster rides--he might not come back!! lol thanks for reading jamie: empowerment...hmm..yeah, i suppose youre right--a hope of regaining my own soul..my own self..well, unless, he who holds it treats it right..and then he can keep it thanks for all replies friends dg "Half of what i say is meaningless; but i say it so that the other half may reach you." -Kahlil Gibran |
