In your eyes I see the weight of your soul-- Tortured and silent. Many times I want to reach to you Take you in these arms And strip away the burden. You are so far… So silent… So lonely. I hear your cries And with you I shed tears of anguish. I cry your river of tears. I sense your longing In the darkness enfolding us My heart chills and breaks. If only together We could halt this torture Face each challenge as one. But my love… You are so removed… So tacit… For how long? [I had to rename this...didn't like the original title] Marie~ [This message has been edited by mariee66 (edited 04-19-2000).] |

very nicely done ... these people can break your heart ... you know they're hurting ... but they continue on and bear the weight in silence ... sad Rex}>{{{{o> |

A sad and haunting poem Mariee. "Love is the only drug you can take that will convince you each time that you've never had it before." ~author unknown~ |

Mariee I must agree, it is a very haunting refrain. I like this one. The mood just sort of grabbed me and held on tightly. I always love reading your work, dear! ~you reached inside, you touched my heart, and I am all the better for it~ Terry A. Woodson, Jr. |
