Clouds go by as I look to the sky Freezes me in the in-between Busy with life’s comings and goings Not pausing to see Not ever wondering why Time still remains for all just the same Can’t forget the last dream In which I had my peace of mind Don’t know what a day like today means Suddenly I remember her name And it starts pouring rain Everyone should sometimes come undone And let that feeling flow through The most peaceful time of day What wonders solitude can do Just letting the raindrops come I have no shame watching the rain Nothing will ever satisfy me The way I am with opened mind A spirit finally set free Suddenly I forget her name And it keeps pouring rain |

every line likes me, followed me into the calm of myself, to the home which I would prefer.... so I shall tuck this into the library, for further viewing, when I need just this.... |

The same line captured me as JLR: Everyone should come undone. My compliments. This was excellent. |

Everyone should sometimes come undone And let that feeling flow through The most peaceful time of day What wonders solitude can do Just letting the raindrops come I have no shame watching the rain Nothing will ever satisfy me The way I am with opened mind A spirit finally set free Suddenly I forget her name And it keeps pouring rain =========================== your ability to write these kinds of emotions so that the reader feels the intensity is always impressive, and as Lady says your then take the reader to that place inside of them that relates to your words. this is a beauty PK. We wish ourselves beautiful, |
