Even I am sick of me--
head in pound relentlessly--
freedom found within the keys
unlocking labyrinth, my feet
in argument of mind's concern
I hesitate too long at turn
intellect at war with voice--
I wish renounce my will of choice.

I surrender. Cease this war.
I forgot what I fight for.
If ever had I faith? NO MORE.
Weary, I fall on my sword...

To think how many I have slain
so I might live to fight again...
as though I made a difference--
I laugh aloud at my pretense.
Love was wonder's innocence,
and all my longing, pure nonsense.

Is it time for serenity to go outside and howl at the moon in an unserene fashion? I find it helps me sometimes.  Not tonight though, it's freezin out, so I'll just howl in here. Want me to howl a little for you too?

Without the experiance of love where would we be? We would have no memories to cherish.
With love it brings hurt with hurt bittersweet memories.

Every word we write makes a difference, in one way or another.  We all become weary of the battle, and life is a battlefield at times. Even the most complex labyrinth has a door to freedom. Forgive my rambling!

*sigh* when I feel this way I know it is time for me to go to my favorite place to listen to the wind or the ocean waves or a running stream. I find those things soothing to my heart and soul. My heart goes out to you. You are doing the right thing by writing it out.

Love I leave with you whether it is in your life now or yet the essense of your dreams.

If she who dies with the most toys wins, then can I have some toy boys please?

You express so well the pangs of life. I sense the time and toll on your heart...and hope the scene will be one that you will rise from and take a bow. You so deserve to be the star of center stage with roses thrown at your feet.

Sincerely,
Regina

This is a great outporing of your emotions Luscious  

I am with rwood though...
You so deserve to be the star of center stage with roses thrown at your feet.
I couldnt agree more

you call it nonsense
some would call it love's long search
love lives inside you
look within to find your love
love yourself and love finds you

Fool, said my Muse to me, look in thy heart and write.
