No longer sure exactly the day when she went down for the count, I still remember the look after the closing of the door. I knew then, the news would not be good. Fellow sufferers gather round, with furrowed brow we analyze the events preceding...I told how she had been flighty- coming and going these last few years, how sometimes she was silent, and other times she refused to be. I admitted that she trusted too much. I told how the last time's piece picking might have been more than she could take, how after pouring out her final say, I felt her give way. Heads nodded in silent understanding. Nothing now to do, I sit bedside and wait, hold her hand and tell her that I miss her. Can you hear me?...they tell me you can... Softly I speak, not to the level of intrusion, just to let her know that I am here waiting... [This message has been edited by jellybeans (edited 11-21-2001).] |

well I intentionally left it ambiguous, but I don't want anyone feeling sorry for me, so will add in that it is just about my silent muse.....I hate it when I have nothing to write... thank you so much for your concerns |

whatever you are going through, I know how you feel, I don't like pity either...just know that it's wonderful to have a place where you can write it out, do whatever you need to do to be good to yourself and the muse will return if gone. Most times, the muse is really another name for our soul..I think..I'm babbling here.....Happy Thanksgiving. Just...Kathleen |
