Call My Name From a far off horizon, I heard you call my name, in the instant of a heartbeat, life will never be the same. Have you ever wondered, if all those stories could be true? Words of songs, and lines from poems, feelings that I never knew. Sealed my heart against love, stonewalled against the pain, tried to catch the rain clouds tears then I heard you call my name. Against you I have no defenses, from beyond the silver screen, a voice that echoes in my heart, a face within my dream. My shadow drifted sadly, until you sheathed it's steel-edged pain, in the busy midst of my lonely life, you gently called my name. "Life is like music; it must be composed by ear, feeling, and instinct, not by rule."~ Samuel Butler ~ |

Tess, this is great - I can understand you so very well, because I felt like this for quite some time as a teenie - because I never got the ones I adored, I sealed myself away and thought that I didn't want to love and open my heart anyway... glad there was a special someone who taught me how to love... who called my name... *dreams on* Jenova |

Tess~ This is so poignantly lovely ... 'then I heard you call my name' What wonderful magic that phrase can have when spoken from lips with love. ~*Marge*~ ~*The pen of the poet never runs out of ink, as long as we breathe.*~ noles1@totcon.com |

Thank you Beth and Marge for your kind words, and for taking the time to reply. It's always encouraging to know that at least someone is reading ! "Life is like music; it must be composed by ear, feeling, and instinct, not by rule."~ Samuel Butler ~ |
