Here is another, just for you, rhymes in time, long overdue... I heard of whispers in the dark, and romps of dreams and sting of spark, Tales of shivers up the spine and tongues that taste of aged wine... fingertips to feather--chilled, loveliness of love fulfilled, Rumors, have I heard of this-- to taste a soul upon the lips... I listen for the answers true, and weep because I'm missing you... each idea, a new thing born, shared with you, and left forlorn. I heard of love-- did not believe, 'til I met you, and you did leave. A prison now of memory... a prisoner you've made of me. Once more, please, just wipe my tears, still my shaking calm my fears... If it's but a night of free... oh come with me, pretend, I'll be as close to her I can achieve, for you, I'd give up being me. |

serenity, for you I'd give up being me. What a poem. Bravo! 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."- |

JMHO - but no one - nothing - No love - should EVER take away you're being you. (This is not to say the poem isn't lovely and powerul and perfect and understandable - i.e. - hyperbole by way of expressing the strength of your love and caring. But men can be pretty stupid at times and abusive to those who allow themselves to be carpets. - I talk too much. |

Serenity, Powerful poetry here my friend. I like this one. But, you know . . . if he really loves you, you won't have to be anyone except yourself!! Lone Wolf Poetry should surprise by fine excess...it should strike the reader as a wording of his own highest thoughts and appear almost a remembrance. -J.Keats |

Hugs to heart, each and every one...and worry not, I lied...I can't help but being me, I've been studying the understudy all my life....grins, and love to all me friends...and Wils, no apologies necessary, carpet is a good metaphor, but don't forget the magic...I just miss him.
