Maybe tonight? I won't be lonely. perhaps tonight? I will not cry. maybe my fingers just might type words enough to bring me home. Maybe I'll write some dazzling lies and punctuate with pause of bluff-- with all my words? I'm still alone. and all my words are not enough. " Only those who risk going too far can possibly find out how far one can go." T.S. Eliot |

That overpowering feeling of loneliness is not normal....the need to be loved is the other overpowering feeling that creates the same loneliness if not fulfilled and one might lie to themselves or others but it doesn't change the needs and wants of the tremendous biological desires that permeate our very souls...and strangely enough from this very pain comes the beauty from our lonely hearts....I think I might be close on this one Celeste...I enjoyed the expression of the kind of cry in your words that comes from the heart...I hope this is just poetry and you won't be alone for long....ethome The poet is like a cocoon; in him the caterpillar of the past finds rest, and from him the butterfly of the future emerges. |

Serenity, your poem touches my heart and next time I'll come better prepared when logging on to this site and bring some kleenex to my desktop  I trust you take this as a compliment for it is not every poem in my mind that can touch upon the many pools of emotions we have in ourselves... Your poem achieves this and I compliment you on a splenid write... ~coco~ |

k/s You've gone and plucked my string with this. I never know from where or from whom it will come. Thanks, I think, for "two poets' irony." e/k [This message has been edited by Krawdad (edited 02-26-2001).] |

there's no question - there are days I'm supposed to be reading here - there's times serendipity demands I should find a serenity post like this ... you speak for me too wonderfully well too true |

Yep, words are not enough, but they do evoke great therapy. |

you have expressed how i feel exactly...funny how we power on to write when we acutely realise our words aren't enough.... this one goes to the library  [This message has been edited by kaile (edited 02-26-2001).] |

Sweet girl, I can hear more sad than usual in here, I thought mardi gras would be a happy time..The last few words strike hard. So hurtfully true, isn't it? Wonderful poem. Sandra |
