Cold Shouldered I've made myself into a fantasy, and like the rain, I trickle down softly weakening to you, the one who rings my world in rainbows of possibilities when the light disperses on the mist of me that begs a morning's touch. I circle once or twice or even three times hoping for that everlasting note, a timeless sharing, a sound to perpetuate those moments of heart, focused on you, always your name, carving out my day. My thoughts scale the impossible, pretending I am a part of your world, but knowing that I am an illusion, living parallel, decorated in rejection, my shoulders growing cold and my words now at an end, to be rebuffed no more... "Love is not blind - It sees more and not less, but because it sees more, it is willing to see less." (Will Moss) [This message has been edited by nakdthoughts (06-17-2003 01:21 PM).] |

a wrap wouldn't be enough,I am afraid. I want to thank you Ron, for always trying to lighten me up when I have needed it.  M |

ah... your welcome... well if a wrap is not enough then I suggest some time in the sun... maybe you need to do alittle sun soaking and get the chills of all the rain and grey driven out... Now... stay away from those clothing optional beaches though...I hear Toe hangs around them trying to remember what it was he used to think about when he saw a woman in her birthday suit... he's probably harmless, but you never know if you'll end up in one of his poems or not..LOL.. Now..smile... it will make you feel warmer. |

*s no sun here today, Ron and more rain is on the way. Besides I haven't the nerve to be in a birthday suit, even if mine is next week. And Toe, he doesn't scare me. If I had to, I could come up with a good one about him.  Thanks again, M |

Thank you Janet, and I hope you had a wonderful birthday.  Michele, I have had my share of "not knowings" and have given up waiting for answers. Thanks, sometimes I wonder if anyone "gets" the meaning of my words. hugs M |

Maybe fantasy is a virus, M. Lots of it going around here. And it seems, like a virus, once you've got it, it never really goes away, just pops back up when the conditions are right. - - - - - Hope you have a nice birthday, Maureen. Hey, why not go do something wild and crazy . . . or maybe just go a little nuts. What's to lose? Still like to read you, Kraw' |

JamesM...seems the same with me...so now I will get no shoulder, at least then I know what to expect hugs M Lori, you always get me with your witty and very kind remarks. You know me too well. Thank you, vandana Kraw', I wish that it was a virus, at least I would know it can be cured even if temporarily. Thank you for the birthday wishes. I shall be driving to New Hampshire, taking my mother to see her many grandchildren she has never met. You make me smile..I am the most unwild person there is on earth, I believe. My 4 siblings were so wild that I couldn't even get close to them with their antics...I was the one who never did wrong, but always looked guilty because I was afraid I would get the blame...and often times did. I am glad you read me. Thanks and M |

Some how, and I can not begin to figure it out, but you've created a warm glowing background for this one. Wonderful. <>DW<> |

Perhaps I don't "get" your words, but I take them and interpret them to fit my frame of reference. This is how I see it...you must accept yourself, not become a fantasy for anyone. You will never recieve anything but a cold shoulder when you are not real. I, too, have done the fantasy thing, all the while thinking..if only they new the real me. Does this make sense? Just be you. You are worthy as you are. Patricia |

passing shadows, is there room enough for the both of us in there? M D'sWhisper, thank you. Warmth resides inside of me, even when the words belie it. Goldenrose, "I touch the shoulder so cold in friendly gratitude, love will come." very sweet. Thank you, GR M Susan, aren't we the moody ones... hugs and an early happy birthday. M Patricia, Thank you for your comments. I accept myself, just as others accept themselves. Guess there are times though that the match isn't made because compromise is impossible to some. You make sense... Poetry writing is my fantasy world. I am all too real, otherwise. I couldn't be fake if I wanted to. I write sometimes the opposite of how I feel, so as to not always let others know the truth of the moment. Because as a cancer, I may feel sad one minute and elated the next. We are the "moody ones". hugs M |
