This is my heart, incomplete-- and every meet of soul so sweet... This one, all would understand. With these words would I feel the hand of ying coupled within the yang. All the words of heart, unspoken, promise of my birth unbroken--- for every word I've left unsaid I've left my soul twice as dead... Favorite? I've penned none yet. 'Til pray me, I, my soul to rest... If any words be pondered, deep-- I pray the Lord my soul to keep.. |

I think its poetic and perfect you would be the first to post to this... I LOVE this poem, every word is kissed with your grace... with that gentle vunerability that I so adore about your poetry. *blowing kisses to the south* me loves ya, jm I think I could need - this in my life I think I'm just scared - that I know too much I can't relate and that's a problem I'm feeling ... If you're gone - maybe it's time to go home There's an awful lot of breathing room But I can hardly move If you're gone - baby you need to come home cuz there's a little bit of something me... In everything in you. ~MB20~ "What the caterpillar calls the end ... The world calls a butterfly" ~Lao Tze Tao~ ~Butterflies are meant to be free~ |

Loved this serenity, All the words of heart, unspoken, promise of my birth unbroken--- for every word I've left unsaid I've left my soul twice as dead... and even when we write poetry we discard words and images that are poems in their own right. a wonderful response to the challenge. ------------------------ "I've been too honest with myself I should have lied like everybody else"-Richey Edwards "Take nothing but pictures. Leave nothing but footprints. Kill nothing but time".

serenity, loved it, very much..... but I must ask what does this mean.... would I feel the hand of ying coupled within the yang. Well whatever it really means, my brain interpreted another way... |

Serenity I missed this, as I've missed much around here lately. Sorry! I like this and the words just hit home. To pick a favorite line, would be to choose them all, they all spoke to me |
