~*~ Days slip away,over the years in between when I reigned as queen and you were my king, my favorite chapter, in that time of my life. How I loved you so for all the right reasons and the precious seeds you planted. I remember you as an impossible dream too good to be true. We were truly blessed before we drew swords, taking individual stands wielding idle threats, submitting to the pain, placing the blame. Leaving scars, shedding tears that will last foever, doesn't change anything not now, not ever. But for you and I, I hope someday we will come away and make our peace. Hidden in a valley beside an open stream, another love will take our place where we will find our dreams, and make them last. ~*~ |

TD, Martie and icebox, thank you. I'm pretty miserable company these days, but writing helps to keep the blues at bay. Hugs to you all~ |

Good expression -- been there. The only peace I've is individual, not mutual. But, that has been enough. ![]() |

Dear Bluesy, The coming and going of love is so very hard to understand but I'm at a disadvantage because it only came once to me - in such a long life too. What is it supposed to teach us I wonder and will the lesson ever be worthwhile? |

Sad write with sparks of hope, touching read. There are endings and beginnings. Now is the time of new beginnings, if you let them happen ... Bluesy queen, you are meant to reign! Love and hugs. Margherita ![]() |

But for you and I, I hope someday we will come away and make our peace. I wish this for you! *S* But sometimes it has to be enough to find that peace ourselves and wish them well. *S* Beautiful, poignant write! *S* |

"We were truly blessed before we drew swords, taking individual stands wielding idle threats, submitting to the pain, placing the blame." Ya know Bluesy, ya really were blessed. Ya could've ended up with a bunch of cats instead of kids. Thought ya might miss my zoo humor... ![]() |

Bluesey Here it is, what poets do best... A display of words, that stir emotions, Of love and despair ... The tuning of heart strings, Played in sad minor keys. And then, at the end of the song, An incline of spirits That declined in the much that was lost In their predecessors... Hope enters in the last groups Of words, bringing a little light To the dark rooms of the others. ---------ice ><> |
