theres a moment between sleep and dream where my heart aimlessly wanders. theres a fire being snuffed somewhere in a soul with used-up wishes. only sadness remains. laughter heals the wounds but for a moment. love is something far away... theres a second when my heart forgets and boldly believes again-- but seconds fade, and memories linger-- and scars dont wash away... --dgvarner "i speak in written word--my lips, no sound may utter..." dgvarner |

thanks debbie, for your reply.. i wrote this with the on-again/off-again realization that i no longer had a marriage and i and my baby were now living with my mom, who was gracious enough to take us in--me with no job..it got real lonely sometimes... dg "Half of what i say is meaningless; but i say it so that the other half may reach you." -Kahlil Gibran |

dg- bittersweet, yes; but beautiful as well. "there's a moment between sleep and dream where my heart aimlessly wanders..." I love this! "...and memories linger- and scars don't wash away...

Hi DGV I only saw this today and realized it was the same title that I posted in the pub a couple of days ago,I've been absent due to a family loss. When I read it, it seems we are coming at the same theme,of loss, from a slightly different angle,now that's POETIC. I'll change my title if you wish me to. Sorry about the error. Jon |

dg - this is so heart wrenching, and written so beautifully. It certainly does tug at those strings. Bonnie |
