Someday... Again In quiet times I look upon my shelf of memories and see you there, weak or strong but never forgotten. Today the nightmares returned in my morning dreams. Though my mind was on you, the ugly interfered storming through the smiles that touched my lips when resting against yours there, on my pillow of thought. Something about you charms my within, wings my flight, speaks my language erases my fears, allowing me to be myself, no pretense, just me and the other side of Alice. Why do I batter myself, torment with the struggle rather than retire those old images and come home to me? You are my in-between, the unsaid that needed saying, the lingering touch that sustains the hope in me, the hand that reaches out to lift me from the gray, the painters brush that perfects the belief that I am not just the tears of yesterday but am the someday of tomorrow. M "Love is not blind - It sees more and not less, but because it sees more, it is willing to see less." |

Maureen, This is a wonderful write but I'd like to see the melancoholy put aside for a while. |

Thanks for reading Larry, On Second Thought My life is so chaotic although it rests in still. I hold the words within my soul releasing words of will. Somedays my body wants to do my mind says no! no! no! and other times it's mind that goes and body stops the flow. I am the freeing of my soul, but ghosts of past stop by, reminding me of "not to do's" and "go aheads" to try. I may not please (you) all the time, I may please none at all. But inside me the words just come and allow what must to fall. I'm happy just to be alive and write and live to feel. My insides shelter much that's hid as I search tomorrow's real.

I love how you handled the ending. Not to mention that you wrote "pillow of thought." |
