The power I do not dare take the chance to feel the touch of lovers dance inside, I have an ache within do not need another to begin disappointments have a way creep in your heart there to stay for now do not contend in hope again to fall on slippery slope so many things can you arrange beat of heart you can not change for now I know who holds the key to own that power is only me |

Self shields can save us sometimes in pushing away the night sometimes they block the sun sometimes... well said says he with a pen lol AT "Time is merely change. It neither enslaves nor determines us. It is instead our opportunity for self-definition" |

A true thought provoking well thought write...very good, much enjoyed! The poet is like a cocoon; in him the caterpillar of the past finds rest, and from him the butterfly of the future emerges. |
