Should I ramble now, or hold these thoughts here inside where they rest, residing in dormant places; or let them flow from pen to paper? Dormant, my visions have been for so long locked within but unknown to me as to reasons of why. The silence in the air lingers so, although all that surrounds is turned up as loud as it can possibly be but still.... the quiet is found within {and what will be, will be...} I had begged, I had pleaded but tonight? Tonight, I did not ask, no, I nary even gave thought to the writing of words the voice of inner steadily increased in volume until all other sounds were diminished into a distant back round, and I, though being aware of their existence no longer acknowledged them. This prevailing need took precedence to a moment seemingly predetermined, no longer to be repressed.... days having passed, a muse in isolation, enduring this separation of thoughts, no longer flowing. {Sweet release would be welcome} The mind says, the pen can not, will not write, but my soul screams you must.... You must.... Today, I did not think to write, but the need told me that it was time.... {I wanna cry like the rain Cry like the rain Shine like the sun on a beautiful mornin' Sing to the heavens like a church bell ringin' Fight with the devil and go down swingin' Fly like a bird Roll like a stone Love like I aint afraid to be alone Take everything that this world has to give I wanna take any breath I can get I wanna live } Josh Gracin |

Dormant, my visions have been for so long locked within but unknown to me as to reasons of why. ~*~ Isn't it wonderful when we have the key to unlock those very reasons? Enjoyed this, little one. |

Should I ramble now, or hold these thoughts here inside ===================== I vote for you to .... RAMBLE ON !!! ![]() escpecially when you write as lovely as this... This prevailing need took precedence to a moment seemingly predetermined, no longer to be repressed.... days having passed, a muse in isolation, enduring this separation of thoughts, no longer flowing. {Sweet release would be welcome} The mind says, the pen can not, will not write, but my soul screams you must.... You must.... Today, I did not think to write, but the need told me that it was time.... you write the passion we feel for muse perfectly Donna...love this one. I would love to live as a river flows, carried by the surprise of its own unfolding. |
