Sometimes when I see you on here and my eyes light up and a smile forms at the corners of my lips, I wonder just what is it, you have over me. What hold, that clears my mind and allows happiness to enter, even if ever so briefly. For when words you then type, are eased into my thoughts, and they say solitude, aloneness, indefinitely, perhaps, maybe, when I think more along the lines of fulfillment, togetherness, closeness, forever and always...an upheaval occurs. And inside the churning begins, What was once smooth and calm, and colored swirls of sweetness becomes hardened, blurred, roaring moments of doubts. For I, too, understand solitude and the need to be alone. I move between a sunny, warm room to comfort me or a cooler darkened room to fit the mood and another complete floor to achieve creative outlets in. I have had my solitude for 3 years now and my other life before that, so busy and entwined with others, that I never noticed when a day went by... Now I not only notice, but the hours are so slow, I try to sleep more and more of them away, because this emptiness is haunting, shadows me everywhere, trips me on the stairs, bumps into me around corners, wraps me tight in quilts at night, so not one breeze of a cool thought can find its way, between the layers of covering, to bruise me with touch. When I awaken to the softness of a purring voice or the tapping of her against my cheek, wanting of me to get up and share the moments with her, nourish her and in return receive from her warmth against my own, to make me feel worthwhile I wonder if she can live another 20 years, to be my companion, to love me unconditionally, to know that I shall not have to dwell in this home alone, passing my shadows in the hallways, whispering around corners of my desires, slowly traveling the steps one foot at a time...letting gravity pull me down...as I start each new day... These are my sometimes thoughts, overwhelming the others, that say life is wonderful when you have someone to love and that someone loves you... just thoughts for a ~Wynter's eve "The worst prison would be a closed heart". ...Pope John Paul II [This message has been edited by nakdthoughts (edited 02-04-2001).] |

Wynter - you do have the most precious thoughts, as these words you have written. Again, I am touched by them. "These are my sometimes thoughts, overwhelming the others, that say life is wonderful when you have someone to love and that someone loves you..." BC |

Wynter's thoughts on a winter day. Perfect combo. I understand the feelings here, and you always speak them so well. Sandra |
