conscientious people don't like being late for work I know, I know what's a few minutes here a few minutes there but for me, I can't help it, it upsets the whole day when I am twenty minutes late its like the wheels of time slipped forward a cog no longer matching they grind and slip and the day is forever changed but I have found a way to fix it and the gears slip nicely back into place I just plan to end my day twenty minutes late. Its the same way with my life without you my heart slips and catches and the days don't slip easily into the nights nothing goes right anymore everything I do is a cog or maybe even two off but for this I haven't found a fix how do I compensate time for your leaving so I won't miss you so much? |

I don't know that there is a way to compensate for that time other than expending more time to heal. Sort of a catch 22 in that one. Your penning is so brilliant in this piece. |

thank you so much, I stay awake at night writing these, and then almost forget that I posted them, and so to come in and see your comments is a smile for sure  |

I love the way you went about expressing these thoughts - For me it was like coming around a corner in a desolate area to find a garden - and once more I echo suthern's words |

Corazon... here's a suggestion - try spending time with Toerag or Balladeer - they'll make it seem like hours and hours in just a few minutes. If you spend enough minutes with them, you can get a whole day out of it. |

Corazon, some days are like that disjointed and out of whack what can you do, but see it through if that doesn't work change your tack. Kethry "It is the image in the mind that links us to lost treasures; but it is the loss that shapes the image, gathers the flowers weaves the garland."- |
