Somewhere along the way those others touched you touched your heart- in a place I never found. (I’m sorry) I’ll try to touch it now. Immobile stretches of humility grate heavy sobbing wisps (wisps of me) to shredded puddles falling falling at your feet. How can you not see- see the hurt stone deep on me? I am transparent pale as paper how can you NOT see the hurt stone deep on me? Recalling of your gallantry (yesteryears and timid women) I feel a massive shallow festering to spread... spread so hard to callous. Crystallized drops lick soft cheeks tired eyes and screaming soul- in a way that makes you ask why? why so deep? why so cold? I tell you just this once... Taste my tears my secret fears heal the cut in silent hush and hold me close until this deep has drown to sleep Take my confession secret- (hold it tight hold it tight) and heal your loving with woman of night. **Just one of those haunting memories that come back from the beginning of a love storm...and? I had quite a rocky one to get the right storm.** ![]() Open arms can be the most fragile in the world... |

*does as your critique message says and strokes your ego* No seriously you have a way with words I'm sure you hear that all the time..but I never did say I would score on originality..liked it nonetheless.. Consider yourself fuzzed |

I tell you just this once... Taste my tears my secret fears heal the cut in silent hush and hold me close until this deep has drown to sleep Take my confession secret- (hold it tight hold it tight) and heal your loving with woman of night. Poetry just doesn't get much better than this. Again, you look inside me and write me on the page. Great write! |

There are storms, and then, there is the quiet storm. You seem to have come through both of them to find peace. Thank you. What light through yon window breaks? It is the east, and Juliet is the sun. |

I liked the imagery in this piece...it definitely brings back feelings that I just got over about my little predicament...sigh... Nevertheless, this was a lovely piece. I always enjoy reading your work...>; ) "Am assured,receptive,responsive women of substance. My sense of self comes not from other people but from myself? That can't be right." Bridget Jones |

Came close to crying here. This is so familiar here, that it could almost be one of my memories. "Woman of night" - I like that. Esclandre |
