Can you hear it between us? This gray mist of sudden uncertainty slowly creeping in distorting features once so crystal clear and leaving shadows in your eyes that I can't read coating the two of us until I can't recognize you at all Can only stare at this stranger that sometimes reminds me of you To capture and live a moment is truly living |

it's a beautiful poem, well worded. amazingly well worded. but just out of curiousity, what is it with the line breaks? they seem a bit sharp and awkward at points. sorry to criticise...but they seem unnatural. |

You got the sound of frustrated hopelessness written into this one very well!! It came across to me as strangers under the same roof...ethome |

It's true, sometimes someone we thought we knew...changes, or the relationship changes...and we don't know them at all..you have expressed this well...so sad. |

Dreamkeeper* Those layers of gray have a time and a place in every relationship it seems...we can only hope to hang on until the sun melts the clouds away...great writing~ You cannot dance in the sun until you have cried in the rain~ |

Moments Uncertain Tear through the Heart On Strings Quivers Deep Down Revolts Inside You Know This Storm A Tempest Will Pass With The Dawn Knowing Love Never Stopped |

This one moves into my heart, for it holds a cold, unbearable truth for me in this time of my life. Thanks for being able to voice something that I have yet been able to find the strength to say. PS, may I have permission to send this through one of the e-cards here to someone I think needs to read this? < !signature--> With the word, I am mighty, with the pen I am free.. dragonpoe [This message has been edited by dragonpoe (edited 11-17-2000).] |

dragonpoe, thank you so much! Yes, please do. Am so glad it touched you that way.... DreamSeeker, Great to see you here! And yes, so very true. Thank you. Butterflies_Don't_Cry: You couldn't be more right. So very very true. Thankfully that time for me has passed. Martie: Yes....you've said this very well. Hard to remember sometimes that everything changes, or goes through changes. Thank you so much for commenting! To capture and live a moment is truly living |
