Sipping Familiar Sometimes silence can be a distraction to ordinary moments Yet, a different kind of cry to the blatant air Tonight she's taking advantage of the stillness around her She's holding the urge to reminisce the memories she wears... She has within her the collection of moments time has given The familiarity of his heart offered when the rain screamed her name Though he shelters her from the steady water and it's constant drip She would still care even if it never rained upon her again... In the center of quiet you'll find her sipping familiar once more Taking her sweet time not to dismiss a single act She's taking the long way home to his seraphic face Clinging to the high feeling the silence has brought back... Sipping familiar she recalls patience and how time made it's stand Fear then replaced with desire to reach where she's never been The only one to ever complete her so wounded soul And, now she fights to control cravings the hours brought then... For it is certain she has loved in this lifetime before But, with comfort on the winds one can expect things to change She's never been this dedicated to allow something good to just be Knowing the past attached them both to a territory already claimed... It is all in a touch and loved so much And, sipping familiar so that the feeling will stay It's in the eyes that she tries not to stare too long into Afraid the delay to look on will give her away...

Good Lord, WOMAN! You write so well! I love the style you write in and the power with which you ponder things. For all who watch.Dare you say hello? Come in and ask the questions that are on your mind, but spare me your judgement until you truly sipped of me. |
