Email from an ex last night...dredging up some old feelings...(delete, delete, delete) I did not respond...instead a face-lift of some old dark thoughts... Serpent in my mind... Your eyes drew me warm and alive with wooly mischief captivatingly dark with the concealment of buried consequences for a moment they reflected me and in that moment I was foolishly drawn by a free spirit drifting momentarily through my life pausing long enough to alter everything I knew a wily serpent hissing your charms in my ear tempting me to taste of you seducing me with tongue flickers I once breathed your name my hallucinations intricated with your face you were everything and I...your addict stripped of everything My soul My dignity and finally...my mind used up insipid imagery within a cracked mirror you slithered away with my sanity tiny shards of me embedded in your retreating belly... I love the time and in between the calm inside me in the space where I can breathe... Sarah McLachlan |

through my past and now my knowledge, I will gain....and once again where I wiltered I will shine This is the last lines I wrote in a poem about the same subject Sweetie I know what you're going through and it is very dark and lonely but there is a light believe me. You have penned this emotion extremely well...well penned ~HUGS~ Tracie~ ![]() Love is the life of the soul...

Breathe~ This is great! Love the snake thread. Neat word choices, allusions and illusions. (I might be reading in a couple you didn't intend, but that's ok.) /:^)== =#== |
