Rewrite: So be it She saddles me like a willing horse And digs her spurs into my sides She screams commands till she is hoarse I groan each time she mounts and rides. There was a time when love was new I felt we were the same, of course. But as time passed, I finally knew That she was rider- I the horse. Today we go along our way Until death or at least divorce The Grande Dame proudly on display Aboard her tired beaten horse. She cannot change her way I know She's etched the pattern of her die I knew this quite a while ago Yet still I love this meadows lie. Our love has many forms and states And Unluckly this was my fate. |

*sigh* the sadness in this poem is what reaches out to me. There is also acceptance of it being this way. I can only say that my heart goes out to you. Love I leave with you whether it is in your life now or yet the essense of your dreams. |

Every now and again, I need to read something like this... it makes being alone seem less a curse. *S* Great writing, Seymour... as usual. *S* |

I still envision for you a slow merry go round...if even for a moment....a stampede of spirited thunder. Sincerely, Regina [This message has been edited by rwood (edited 10-25-2001).] |
