The ending is a bit rough, but this one came to me by way of my *Jenn* The Dreamer personality.

Its all hers tonight it seems. It gets rough at the end, but really is just a ramble..not meant for perfection.

shh..here softly, she dreams
of lies and loves and rings and things
of dreams that showed themselves in the shadows of hopelessness
of lights and love and dreams and schemes
of someone whose heart she'd never hold.
the coming of seasons drew near again
and she, for love and loss, remained
every constant soul in torture
smiled on only by a touch of light from the corner.
shhh..here softly, she dreams and things
for she, the dreamer once was here
loving and living and lifting, it seems.
she loved and left and limited, see
and held her heart in captivity.
she aches and smiles and and frowns you know
and one smile remains her fortress.
the smile of dreams and love and rings and things
she, dreamer, left her soul in words.
comes back for them once in a while
and leaves some behind in their place,
she the dreamer, the acher, the nectar you see
of passion and the fashion of love to be.

Your storm of assumption feeds anger I am calm enough to hold inside. Don't pretend to know me if you've never put stretched out your heart with since

Jenn, I love this. We all have other parts inside of ourselves (believe me I know

)
they are there, most lie dormant b/c they are never ever needed. But they exist in every human being. This is very "you" whether you know it or not!! Tee hee

Irish Rose,
Thank you, Lady. I'm glad you enjoyed this.

Yes, we all do have many parts of ourselves. I used to tell everyone when they were trying to pin down my personality that I didn't have just one way to be...that I had too many parts and moods to just call them one thing. I am right up there with those who adore naming every one of them too!

OWG,
Hi there!~Its nice to see you here again. Yes..layers...although I don't know how many of them smooth, but there they are after all.

Sweet Sy,
Do you know, Sir, what an honor it is to have you read my poetry? lol..have I ever told you that? Those lines are part of the beginning leading up to my ending that I ADORE putting out there with at least a little bit of power. Thank you for your compliments and your time with this.

Enchantress,
Thank you so much!

I'm glad those same lines stood out for you in reading this! I'm glad you enjoyed it.

Noah,

Your replies are always so sweet!

Thank you for reading my work. I appreciate it, and I'm glad you enjoyed it.

HEATHER!!!!
HIYA HEATHER! EVERYONE! THIS IS HEATHER WHO HAS FINALLY JOINED US! WOOO HOOOO!!!! *jenn makes a big scene around Heather*

It SO wonderful to have you here, old friend.

Thanks for reading this. I'm glad you liked it.

Smile dreamer,
Loving rings and things,
Penning paper with her soul’s desire,
Then placing,
Them in case to place,
Removes writings to rekindle fire;
Taste dreamer,
Pleasant thoughts words brought
Savor them as they are sweet nectar.

Gloom
If the ending is rough to you
I smooth it in my mind and send it back
as you inspire it.
Hope you don't mind
