To Arms I am wondering what it takes to have those feelings again, those that escape into nothingness when everything you thought had meaning was taken away. Why is it that when I light a candle, a breeze comes out of nowhere and leaves me again in darkness, losing my way in the night? Are there two arms, that could ever hold me again, keep me out of harms way, keep those thoughts, that often fade my happiness, from attacking the strides I have made? Why is it that others can love so easily again, while I make it hard for myself, testing everything I feel, wanting to be sure that here in the dark, I am never alone again. Yes, I fear the dark, and as a child covered my head with a blanket at night, making it darker but preventing that "fear" from touching me. I sleep less each night, soft voices needed to keep me company, my mind playing its part, dream acting what's heard. Sometimes I wake, scared that I did something I shouldn't have and have to check to make sure it was only in thought and not acted upon. As much as I dread the dark, I dislike waking so tired, my mind running all night, every night chasing my dreams. I wonder if I will ever catch up to them, or will they always be held at arms length, never to be felt again. M "Love is not blind - It sees more and not less, but because it sees more, it is willing to see less." |
