how quickly my resolve fled from determined will and all my hopes and dreams dissolve and trembling hand in reach of pill and wake to fog and walk in fog already blinded by my tears a thought I'd traipse the swampy bog and quiet voices of self jeers oh damn me for my being weak as the fever starts again but as I heal? I start to feel... and yearn the blanket of my friend. I am damaged goods that came with policy of no return so here I am lost in my game awaiting chance to take my turn. How is it that an ice cold heart could summon tears so hot they burn? [This message has been edited by serenity (edited 01-11-2001).] |

and all my hopes and dreams dissolve and trembling hand in reach of pill and wake to fog and walk in fog already blinded my tears Much pain here Serenity. Perhaps the catharsis of getting it out will help assuage such tender sore thoughts. "Our remedies in ourselves do lie, ...which we attribute to heaven." Shakespeare Much warmth, Stan |

YOU, my friend, can write so damn well about such difficult subjects.... i am awed! i've been thinking lately (good sign, huh?) that the ENTIRE purpose to all of life is writing... love? to write! pain? to write! difficulties? to write! joy? to write! the more often we experience any of these, the better writers we become.... *sigh*... (well, at least there's a purpose... geez!) - anyway... this one pretty much says it all and ... oh so well..) (((hugs))) hey! i have an idea! maybe we can start a business of some sort... you know...and hire people to take poets through ranges of emotions... LOL... so their writing gets better!! whaddya think? ... get all these poets in one place together and let 'em at each other! then see what happens.. i'd bet we could get a pretty good book out of it *s... y'think?... awww geez, i smiled!!! look at that! how'd THAT happen? *sigh*.. but i gotta have a sense of humor no matter how odd it is..  |

Hey Sista! "How is it that an ice cold heart could summon tears so hot they burn?" How indeed ? Simply love this hugs Maree I may know the word but not say it I may know the truth but not face it I may hear a sound a whisper sacred and profound but turn my head indifferent.
