Separation Anxiety Feelings fade when time is out of place and touch has become a hollow verse. When eyes hide behind, their squint a distance look, as the dark circles under join the sanctuary of those sleepless nights. I look for it, though a needle in a haystack, or a meeting of the minds, a place to belong, to feel wanted, not just a charm to dangle on a link. I don't search, for I have found the second path, though undisciplined, with muted colors leading me on, enough reality to kiss my thoughts, but needlessly unlabeled. I feel this in my heart, sometimes swallowing my pride, as I watch the flames rise and the warmth flow... on this, the other side. M "Love is not blind - It sees more and not less, but because it sees more, it is willing to see less." |

you know mmoonchild, muted is a nice shade sometimes...never loud, never washed out...but subtle..classy...and youve always been a classy lady even through all the sadness you wear you words well |

"I look for it, though a needle in a haystack, or a meeting of the minds, a place to belong, to feel wanted, not just a charm to dangle on a link." I especially enjoyed this verse because I can personally relate to it. Enjoyed! "You sleep in the night yet the night and the silent water still so dark." |

Home is a feeling I buried in you ... |
