Rules break but the pull of love that ties us to hope never changes. Hope always decorates shelves but how can you partake of flavor when its canned and standing with rust behind cabinets stained with cheap colors? . . . . . back again think I strayed. So here I am thinking about that someone I love and yes its you and yes its him and yes I know you're watching me trying to figure me out. There are those eyes on me again asking behind muffled letters if I'm the one stealing all the love meant bind him to someone else. But know that I only accept love that is given to me, for I could never endure a love I had to steal. . . . . This is another part of me thinking along the same train of words but making a different point. She raised her hand, and so she must have her turn to speak. "Its always been this way. never a love stolen never a man accepted without his offering first. Its always been this way so few have come and gone in her life and yet they always came to her when they could no longer drive the whispers of love to the back of their heart and heads. She never did understand how they noticed her soul when she hid her eyes so well. She never could understand when she was walking around head down gaze focused on ground and feet shoulders never too confident, how they could see that amazing someone they were always in awe of. and she never held her hands out with the subject of love written all over them and her heart." . . . There now how could I be confused with a theif of hearts, unless by some evil innocence I gain the daring gifts accused of me. Have I a slithering tongue so fond and magical that I could even fool myself? Ahh.. were I to have a knowledge of that perhaps I could find the bottom of this mystery me. There I know what you think of me rambling on from one subject to another flitting from point to point like a mischievious fairy but all thoughts lead to knowledge of some kind. I'm arriving again another circle completed. There is the constant pull of love that ties me to the hope of one day sharing your life. I love you. and yes its you and yes its him and its not me stealing gifts offered first to me its you in total oblivious anger, boredom, bitterness spite and fear of changing who is pushing what was already far from you further away. You lost a long time ago and I am not the lost and found you'll claim his heart back from. Try acceptance without sulleness. Try a smile without an ulterior motive. Try love without manipulation. Try doing what you say saying what you mean talking when you have something to say but find a balance of extremity in the tone and approach you take. . . . I've rambled again and that was another me making a different point. And I'm here glad that I'm seperate from situations written. Dreaming of simply loving and hoping to be heard. 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. |

Dear Temptress I read and plucked the pieces that I only thought would fit And out of all the rambling, with some thoughts I came to sit I thought of someone’s conscience, who must find it hard to sleep I pictured someone saddened on a bedside as they weep I found a page of questions, that were answered just by hope I found a heart so heavy, unknowing how to cope From it I found a story where guilt it seemed to speak From it I found a pleading from someone feeling weak And then I saw the strength again as strength it reappeared As inner voices said goodbye and guilt it disappeared I loved the work, This is how it made me feel. Sincerely Rick Till again |

You indeed make this character speak. Well done. Thank you. What light through yon window breaks? It is the east, and Juliet is the sun. |

(BIG HUGGGSSSSSSS) Oh Jennifer, we all understand how you feel, sweet friend, everybody needs to be heard and your rambles always show how loving and compassionate you are and how you speak your heart out so sincerely! (kiss on cheek) I hope very soon you find the perfect love you're dreaming of, sweet friend, who wouldn't bargain for you but rather feel for you with time! We all love you so much, sweet friend, this is outstanding! You have such a beautiful heart, sweet Jenn, thank you for sharing!   May love and light always shine upon you! Love, Noah Eaton |

as was said earlier, you make the characters in your work jump from the page. . . and this one is no different. . . I like the title too, "Fictionary Ramble". . . gives it that story feel. . . well done. . . --------------------------------------------------------- To the world, you may only be one person. But to one person, you may be the world. |
