When Dreaming Has Ended |

When the dreaming has ended and the time has no tock, decisions come hardest with no ticking of clock. I am chased by what haunts me and the click of my past, but the present of future brings me down by its cast. Oh, those shadows are merely my sighs taking shape, as I cover the distance with words of escape. I am narrowly with you, but the ending is near, as my dreaming dissolves into nothingness, clear. Was it worth all the hardness, my clock's stuck on one? My timing was off by the seconds, undone. You can tell, I can feel it, the dreaming's at end, no more you-thoughts to spirit, no more wantings need tend. For I'm over it all, let down by the glass, its framing of me, and time tarnished in brass. M "Love is not blind - It sees more and not less, but because it sees more, it is willing to see less."

"Oh, those shadows are merely my sighs taking shape" A rather lonely and sad bit of verse, but the above lines are my favorite. You should see what some of my sighs look like. Hope things are well for you. |

hey C, if you can understand, maybe you can explain it to me...I think my insides know it but the rest of me is puzzled Serenity, I am as well as I can be at the moment...I sigh so much I hyperventilate until I am dizzy (sometimes a good thing and most times bad) |

Hello Maureen How nice to see you again. This was so beautiful yet so very sad. I wish you much love and happiness in the New Year. Here is a little something for you (not written by me) : When the willow bends at the first hint of troubled breezes, our friends come running to see how they can help. Sometimes friends know when they are needed even before we realise it ourselves, because we are accustomed to letting them in on the happenings of our lives Take care........Sue I am in motion |

Maureen, I know this feeling. This has a lot of sorrow for the end of a dream. I sometimes wonder if the dreams are worth it anymore. But still we try, hm? Happy New Year Sandra |

"For I'm over it all, let down by the glass, its framing of me, and time tarnished in brass." I absolutely love those lines. Happy New Year |

"I am narrowly with you, but the ending is near, as my dreaming dissolves into nothingness, clear" Excellent!! Happy New Year! "And it was at that age...Poetry arrived in search of me...And something started in my soul." |
