Please don’t stand at the edge looking for an answer, for this particular canyon will only further yawn. A void between you and she, too great to ever span, a foul, dark chasm it is, so turn and face the dawn. The day has come again, offering one more option gather close the light, warm with absolution. She hasn’t seen the you, you asked her to see, preoccupied with self, no chance of resolution. All this closeted darkness, those demons that haunt you, can only dwell in your house by embossed invitation. So shake the roof, my friend, take back what was always there, waiting at the ready for you, for love has no imitation. © 2000 CM Bailey Michael, please take this with the spirit intended, but the intensity level of pain in your poems, well, sort of drove me to writing this.

So shake the roof, my friend, take back what was always there, waiting at the ready for you, for love has no imitation. ----------------- perfect Corinne... this is very sweet and kind... yes... I know what your saying here. M's poems evoke so much emotion... he is so very gifted and special, he has inspired me so many times... and many others here as well. very nice work here. take care ,jm Is it too much to find an answer Is it too much to hold you close Is it too much to find a reason Is it too much to free my soul From self control ... And I know you're always waiting for me ... You take me far away And I know you're holding me And it's better now ... ~vertical horizon~ |

WOW! Touching is not enough word for this poem. I love it. Nothing can deter a poet, for he is actuated by pure love. Who can predict his comings and goings? "Thoreau" |
