This is based on a dream I had last night... very disturbing but I had to get it out. IN THE BLINK OF AN EYE . You struggled through life You earned the step up Obstacles you climbed to give your family a good home Surrounded by boxes you marvel at the view Clouds roll in below you Caught in the suns light Turning the city below into an ocean of pink Your son Excited by it all He wants to show you how brave he can be Sitting on the balcony ledge he calls to you With a fear in your heart you race towards him In the Blink of an Eye Your new world comes crashing down As a pink ocean of cloud Passes silently by [This message has been edited by Seeker72 (10-28-2007 12:59 AM).] |

Okay kind of confusing, but I do love the title "in the blink of an eye" |

That really is a horrible nightmare. I got chills. Our scars are the foundation for what we have become |

I'm still feeling it, I wasn't sure if I should have posted this poem or just burned it. |
