To Dwell in Capture My heart is divided with moments of him captured in part, like love-me, love-me-not petals with hope, in the answers not given. I understand what he thinks I don't. I serenade myself in wishes, each night a lullabye of him to dream me through the night. But when morning comes, the truth shows its face, mixed emotions overtake and my heart divides into smaller shares. I have spelled upon him all I can. I have reached for the impossible, often inspired by words, so warm at times that my heart melts into whole and its rhythm skips a beat so I can catch my breath, feeling the magic of his touch, once again. I believe that somewhere out there is another like me... One on one, one for one, not a temporary fix but the kind as I once had before, to last at least another 30 years or until my end. It will be my homecoming, a place in my life where I fit in, where I am understood, and understand back, where temptation is ours to fulfill mine to him and he to mine, and where forever means exactly that. It will be my rebirth, and I will be bound by its perimeter to always be, to always love, to face together all that comes our way, to dwell in his capture, forever. M thank you BloomingRose for the inspiration of your response "Capture those moments that dwell in your heart" ![]() "Love is not blind - It sees more and not less, but because it sees more, it is willing to see less." |

I know that YOU don't know me - yet, and I just have to say that this was an excellent poem. Depth in its purest form. - Errick |

Maureen, this is quite lovely, and beautiful, and totally WRONG! Don't do it! Don't look for your life and your identity in someone else-you have to be able to find strength within yourself and then share that strength with another, not captured but free together. Sorry, I know I pontificate too much, but I care about you. Nan(Pilgrim variety) |

M, And then Nan shows up! ![]() ![]() If tears could build a stairway and memories a lane, I'd walk right up to heaven and bring you home again. |

Hello, Maureen. The way you poured your heart out in this poem was excellent. I think that you got your feelings that are in your heart across very well. I just sense a feeling like the others do..... I pray that God will send you someone who loves you like you deserve to be loved. It could be when you least expect it, like it was with me. I didn't plan to fall in love with my Gary. It was very unexpected. We were friends and confidantes first. I hope that you find your true love soon. Love and Best Wishes to You, Ethel/garysgirl |
