Failing At night I try to, undisturbed but fail, my body acts on me. No longer is it mine to drive, my inside wants the out to be. And so I'm sleepness one more time as thoughts of you keep entering. Comfort now, has lost its cause on life of mine, yours centering. Those arms that could, just are not there. Those lips I wish, seem not to care. I lay me down time-in-between the emptiness, becomes routine. Once again I'm here beside to catch a bit of maybe you. The silence reigns, the dampness flows the ever-want brings morning dew. Just because I seek it so a world that holds a place for me imprisoned without want, I feel 'til morning comes to set me free. M "Love is not blind - It sees more and not less, but because it sees more, it is willing to see less." |

The emptiness of missing someone was captured here in powerful verse. Blessings that the arms that surround you next will make you sing more. [This message has been edited by D.Lester Young (05-12-2002 09:36 AM).] |

(big hugggsssssss) Oh Maureen, this is so very powerful, sweet friend, I relate to this so very well because there is one girl I feel so very strongly about that I love so very much, Joanna, and I dream ever so much of being with her but right now I cope with the loneliness in meeting her someday! (kiss on cheek) This is wonderful, sweet friend, we all love you so much! You have such a beautiful heart, sweet Maureen, thank you for sharing! May love and light always shine upon you!
