I lay here, alone, just as I have many times before. Fearing, and thinking too much, perhaps I have lost you. I have not felt you. And what would I do, if that were the truth? I would think of all the things that I had done incorrectly. All the times that I was not cautious enough. I would blame myself until my bones begin to crack from the weight of my own skin. I don't care if I've slept too much, so long as you've gotten the rest you need. But would you, please wake up, and tell me you're still indeed, there..and waiting for more. But if I move, I'll catch my angels feeding upon my demons, for now they are all the same.. I can't stand the thought of the flesh, and the flame so close to my body. Tell me you're alive and I will stand up and remember the reason I could live to begin with. |

I remember thoughts like these. They're right when they say breathe, just breathe. ~K~ |

I'll take you up through the pink clouded mist take a right through the purple haze.. down under the bridge of bliss.. a left past the meadow where time can't exist and here. when I remember your face. Jai of Heaven. You are wise beyond your years.. |

Ah, the mirror we hold up to our souls... better to sometimes hold the mirror opposite us, so that it picks up the light, and shines a beam into the direction you would follow... Your poems always come across so personal, Meghan...like the poets of yesterday, they speak to a person's soul; his or her faults, queries, sufferings...eternal questioning of one's place in life. You are a true, and talented, poetess. |

I would blame myself until my bones begin to crack from the weight of my own skin So touching. Great poem and i'm certain that if i drive into those trees, it would make less of a mess, than she's made of me... |

Normal words along with thoughts, sometimes unsure, although elogantly spoken, for one in a condition such as yourself. You will be okay. |

This may not have ever been said better... Fearfulness, not quite hiding the joy. |

"But if I move, I'll catch my angels feeding upon my demons, for now they are all the same.." Wonderful image! Like the Oroboros of your dreams. |
