You lead me thirsty fresh water spring so close my tongue could dip into the cool yet you bid me not to drink. You lead me hungry bloated in my belly to a feast of plenty insisting all the while I touch not I taste not. I abstain. You lead me into darkness evil thoughts pulsating inside a mind of want provide no cover I'm terrified. I sleep not I weep always You offer nothing to fill what you have emptied. Left is a shell cavernous emptiness thirsty, hungry weak unto dying. WhiteRose Speak to me in whispers, I'll listen with my heart. [This message has been edited by WhiteRose (09-14-2002 07:46 PM).] |

White Rose sounds like this sort of leading is best done with a whip and a chain. Powerful images you present though. Kethry Here in the midst of my lonely abyss, a single joy I find...your presence in my mind. Unknown |

May love and light always shine upon you! Love, Noah Eaton "Underneath your clothes there's an endless story..." |

Very, very well done, my friend. It's hard to come up with a fresh way of saying the same thing that's been said so well and many times before...yet you have, with immense success, done so. Applause jwesley |
