For years, I didn’t....and.... I built the mighty dam, as waters lapped my heels. I troweled the great wall, to hide my reveals. I forged the rivers wide, to run from what did hurt. I'd give, but yet I'd hide my head in choking dirt. I am a man. Blessed be they who cherish me for this. My hem does not show, nor does my soul, unless I pry open the gate to where my heart lies. My cracks lie beneath mortar that discloses but a smooth surface. And of this, one's ponder might divulge the flaw of what is unseen. Don’t ask me to cry, for I do so...freely. Nor should you reach out for a hug, for I am now, as I write. Compassion is naught, for it lies within the letter I wrote. Should arrive soon. And for goodness sakes, don’t look for me to tell my indwelling secrets or shames, for they rest before me now....within my open palm... I am learning...it takes time...

Martie, you haven't seen me in my mirror lately!! Yikes! Thanx dear one... Gosh Lauren, you snuck in on me....I am just a man that is learning self expression, something that he kept within for a very long time...and something/one gifted me with an imagination and a few feelings to add to the stew.... Thanx... |

If "that" gave you "this"... then there's one large smile looming on your horizon... |

Magnus~ I've always done a lot of internalizing, as great grandmother said it was the way of thoroughbreds~ Sometimes it has worked against me ... and then I sifted through my thoughts, knowing just what to share with others ... and yes, I now know that self-expression you speak of~ one's ponder might divulge the flaw of what is unseen.' THIS is a great thought~ *Huglets* ~*Marge*~ ~*When the heart grieves over what it has lost, |
