Unsure of opening up and how much to let on, wagering the cost of something I've never had. A tale I dare not tell fearing I may someday spiral and fall out of line misplaced in the stars leaving an unfavorable impression waning in the moonlight. My thoughts linger, aspiring to hold on to my dreams cast in the shadows of doubt invisible to me. Haunted by the fear of failure I flounder in a timeless void. Climbing the walls in my attempt to escape left wide open searching the sky losing sight of direction pondering where I went wrong. Blinded by the truth complicating my hearts desire and the simplicity there of. I wonder who will be there in the end accepting me for who I am. One who might agree to my terms of endearment without passing judgment and simply be there~ (edit edit) ~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~ *Inspired by Cpat Hair's A(maze)d Wonderings. I hope you don't mind. I don't know how to post the link here. (a techie I'm not) But I wanted to be sure and give credit where it is due.

truth does complicate a heart's desire, especially if you know what you sense: that that love will lead nowhere..liked how you got to that point.well expressed [This message has been edited by ecrivan (04-06-2002 12:44 AM).] |

Larry~ Well heck, I'm not getting any younger!! You're a class act in case I haven't told you so lately. Thanks~ ecrivan~ You've got that right, no where if a far cry from paradise. As much as truth complictes the matter, it's better than going stand by or ending up where you don't belong. I'm surprised to see you, and I thank you for taking the time to read. |

My thoughts linger, aspiring to hold on to my dreams cast in the shadows of doubt invisible to me. Haunted by the fear of failure I flounder in a timeless void. loved this part especially..there was a softness to this that I really loved... "standby" huh? now that is how I have felt many a time..never would have thought of those words though...wwould make a great poem.. hugsss M |

why in the world would anyone mind having someone credit a piece they wrote as inspiration? Like this one... and the truth is none of us are getting any younger are we? I hope you find that person...that accepts you for who you are and shows that acceptance and appreciateion... Nice work Blues.... |

~Blinded by the truth complicating my hearts desire and the simplicity there of. I wonder who will be there in the end accepting me for who I am.~ I relate to this so well. Sometimes, however, maybe we must accept us for who we are first...before anyone else can. *sigh* Nice one Jenn "I can't get you out of my head- your love is all I think about." |

Maureen~ We should write a duet about going stand by ...or we could write about going first class, we could really take off on that one. It would be fun to write with you. Thanks Maur~ Cpat~ Thanks for the inspiration, at times your poetry jumps out at me and crawls beneath my skin. There is truth in words after all and for that I thank you. Mr. Tabin~ I know, he's just running a little late is all. Thanks for the read. Amy~ I thank you for always letting me know you were here and leaving such nice comments. *hugs* Floria~ That was awful nice of you to say. But to be fair, my smile isn't always so sweet. Thank you thank you. Lyra~ Seeing you here is a bright spot, thank you for your kind and caring words and for touching my life. ~warm hugs to you dear~ Noah~ Thanks for your soft words, and the light you share. Sandra~ Thanks for going with my flow, wish this were more upbeat. I don't dwell long, but when I do I dwell deep. *hugs* Sandra~ Jenn~ You are right, however it isn't a question of accepting myself at all, I rather like the person I am, it's just that some don't!! Thanks for stopping by I appreciate it. [This message has been edited by BluesSerenade (04-06-2002 01:28 AM).] |
