I lay, infuriated by the voice that is relentless in my mind "shes screaming" I snap from my own hurricane of pre sleep heartache I suck in intrigued breath and wonder if shes screaming for the same reasons that I wish to Force behind each word is magnified thru the black I see no faces through my blind just the light in their home like spotlight on stage without the make believe So with her my tears reach cheek for her, for me for him. How is it darkness makes me switch on my own voices? her anger fades with the thud of back door i'm alone again without the comfort of knowing my 2 am pain is not unique. |

not unique....perhaps that is all too true for so many of us.. not unique, and yet still in our own way very personal and hard to explain.. well done gem... |

I always love to see the duality of the soul . . . and no gemma - I think all of us here are more alike than we give ourselves credit for . . . Stunning me again xxoo |

Only in the time of day, does this pain become unique. "The shortest distance between two points is.....sometimes intolerable" |

Gemma, it seems when we see a glimpse into someone elses pain, we usually can see some of our own in it. Hugs to you, my little friend   Ethel |

If a single tear drops in the emptiness of night, is it ever felt? The answer is: I felt it just now. Such voices are familar to the heart. Beautifully deep. |

This is brilliant gem, could be my favourite, and gem..if it helps? When you're wondering if you're alone thinking these things at 2 am..know that I for one am awake wondering the same things |
