I am an open galaxy of listening that yearns to fill up corners feathering across an ocean of song your breath grazing my ear that was the way it was supposed to be Me hearing the lyrics you have written on my heart feel me see me hear me watch me dance now but I try to feel you in the breeze where you said you would be a whisper and I cannot and I think perhaps I am wrong and you still work the edge of the knife sweet release your mistress her heaving bosom to drown then spill forth the pieces of your life like sparklers sizzling on damp cement Find me for pity for I cannot grieve this empty space |

Martie I really like this so much, it's sad but beautifully put across. "I am an open galaxy of listening that yearns to fill up corners feathering across an ocean of song your breath grazing my ear" Very well written! |

Me hearing the lyrics you have written on my heart feel me see me hear me watch me dance now but I try to feel you in the breeze where you said you would be a whisper and I cannot and I think perhaps I am wrong and you still work the edge of the knife -------------- this is very intense... a very different type of poem from you, cryptic, and a very intriging title you awe me once again... take care Martie-gator jm I think I could need - this in my life If you're gone - baby you need to come home there's a little bit of something me In everything in you MB20 |
