So, the night finds me again Sleep deprives me of what I might gain Walking along that dark desert highway Night after night and yet so far away The starless moonless night laughing Endlessly at my current plight My sanity, many are questioning I laugh endlessly with delight How do I even begin to explain All that has happened is so arcane My heart is still intact Despite the way I did react How do I get you to see That without you I have nothing Like a forest without a tree Dragon flight without a wing That fall I do remember Threatening to self-ignite Of that fire all but an ember Into that fire, ever so bright Pain has finally taken its toll I have lost that control No matter what can I do All I want is to get back to you To that place beyond all comprehension Where our hearts were formed as one To you I dare not mention I wish I could do what needs to be undone I want to learn to fly again My heart to soar back into your domain To find that ulimate peace To return to that release So, the night finds me again Sleep deprives me of what I might gain Walking along that dark desert highway Night after night and yet so far away Man that was tough. To pull through all my baggage to beat this writer's block. But after seven months I have done it. I look forward to posting and writing more poetry. The White Wolf |

White Wolf, Wonderful images. I am happy to see your beat that block. Welcome back to the pack!  LW 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 |

Such sad feelings I had as I read this..It's one of those "been there, done that" things.. Seems most of us have them..Hope your sadness passes soon..This was a great expression of how you feel..I liked it much..~LL~ The way to love anything is to realize it might be lost. author unknown |

I believe your muse has broken through the barrier. Welcome to Passions! Karilea If I whisper, will you listen?... I would rather be silent and write, than speak loudly and be bound. KRJ |

WhiteWolf~ Congrats on breaking free ... This line is a stunner - 'I wish I could do what needs to be undone' Very well stated. ~*Marge*~ ~*The pen of the poet never runs out of ink, as long as we breathe.*~ [email protected] |

Good to see you, I told Lone Wolf she wasn't alone, this proves it!! "If you live to be a hundred, I want to live to be a hundred minus one day, so I never have to live without you." Winnie the Pooh |
