I cannot stay! |

Everybody knows there’s no music left to dance but I find my feet moving slowly and sensually to the music of a dream no one is conscious of and then in my head the pounding of a drum drowns out the will to live without the hauntingly beautiful music of my heart. Briefly I sway with my remembrances until I come to now, tonight, this first night of knowing how weak I am to hold, carry, love, so long through the pain of loss of one too young to go. I fear I cannot stay in the realm of only soul without the music of my heart dancing me to the end of unhappiness but I know I’ll get by with the roll of a dice wherever I am going to leave the dream behind. To the shadow that walks and haunts my lonely nights, how hard it is to fight the passion you instill and the love you bring forth from out the depths of my being but you’re only a dream and with eyes open I can see another lies in waiting to dream the dream for me. To spirit love, fare thee well, I’m leaving for reality! |

Helen Sometimes reality is easier. Only thing is, behind it is another spirit. I understand this, but it is so sad...I wish I had something wise to say to you besides nodding my head. |

Martie - sometimes the nodding of a head is all that is required. Thank you so much for that! |
