Recycled This life...no life beyond the box a one-way window, looking out to see the people scattering from heart that's slowly shattering in disillusion of illusion of a life in discontent A wave, a plea of, 'see me here!' the people pass - they do not hear and once in every little while a tug of hope - approaching smile a turn towards solitary cell "hello...please let me out!", a yell but only view, that meets the eyes an empty box... a spirit dies ~vlraynes "My friends are my estate." ~Emily Dickinson [This message has been edited by vlraynes (07-22-2003 03:57 AM).] |

I'm with Bryan..what an awesome response left he.... I enjoy this poem very much..not the "sad" in it, but the truth in it..I know the feeling, as do many..Its good to be in the blue now and then, but I was once trapped here, and I realized that real life is outside of the box..Thats where I began to find little bits of me again... I love you dearly My Friend... Be well.. ![]() lv,g I want to run naked in the Blue! |

An excellent poetic statement of a common, but sad, reality. Thank you for sharing it. |

Yet the "one-way box" is a true umbilical to the world for so many... This is an excellent write, m'friend... ![]() |

If we could somehow simply tumble out . . . Instead we stay . . . we sometimes pout. Good one, another touch with so many. s.a.g. |
