Enveloped in the hovering darkness Cowering beneath my blanket of insecurity Losing myself in the usual songs of sorrow, regret and melancholy The tears of torment flowing bitterly unto my pillow until finally I fall into a world of cold uncomfortable sleep and empty dreams that i never remember nor really seem to care to Dreams have long been lost to me (this is the product of trying to overcome yet another bout of writer's block) P.S. i won't be on again for a while. my son has surgery tomorrow. therefore i'll be at the hospital for a few days. wish us luck! see you all when we get home. i love too much, and not enough. |

My best wishes for a fast recovery for your son. Hope it's nothing serious. When I get writers block, I like to listen to my favorite music and rest my mind from over-thinking. Late night quietness also helps. Anyway, will look for you again soon. |

I realted to this one danni, your family are in our thoughts...take care, jm Now for me some words come easy But I know that they don't mean that much Compared with the things that are said when lovers touch You never knew what I loved in you I don't know what you loved in me Maybe the picture of somebody you were hoping I might be jackson browne |

Danni, Great poem for someone with writer's block and worries about a sick child. What is wrong with your son, how old is he? My prayers are with you both for the next few days...*HUGS* May the world hug you today, With it's warmth and love. I pray it whispers a joyful tune in your heart, That tell you there is a friend sitting in another corner of the world, Wishing you well and wishing you love...... ~Isis~ (Goddess - Sovereign of the Spirit) |

thank you isis. he was born with a cleft lip and palate. he's had both repaired and the procedure tomorrow is to, (hopefully), correct his speech. the palate is too short, so it doesn't close off the back of the throat to make "hard" sounds. (k, c, g) stuff like that. this operation will connect the palate to the back of the throat. and he'll be three in april. thanks again for the reply and the concern. as said before, they are most deeply appreciated. |

i like the way you did this b/c everyone can relate to the images in some way. everyone has had the experience of crying themselves to sleep so i know this poem brings back different memories than it would for another reader. that's a sign of a well written poem. everyone relates though not all pulling the same images or memories from it. anyway, now that i'm done rambling...  ) i really do like this piece. it does evoke some powerful images for me. good luck to you and your family during this week. hope all goes well. ) |
