Ebb and Flow You say you know me But still you wonder why And ask if my words Were no more than silvered lies Well ask your questions But don’t ask of me For who I am I no longer see Maybe a wanderer Amid the faceless sea Searching the darkness For a chance to be free It’s all just an illusion Perhaps more than less And we’re all lost within This fleeting caress What’s here and now Is just ebb and flow As for what is real I ask, who’s to know? Maybe all one can do is hope to end up with the right regrets. ~Arthur Miller |

Gentle Spirit ~ Sadly my visits are less often than I’d like, and even then I tend to read much more than I can write! As for “well” I guess that’s all a matter of perspective! ![]() Maybe all one can do is hope to end up with the right regrets. ~Arthur Miller |

It’s all just an illusion Perhaps more than less And we’re all lost within This fleeting caress. I agree with Donna, it's been too long, and this is a splendid write. |

Many times I wonder what is real...I guess if it happened its real...even if we don't like the outcome...James |
