How can the mearest touch-a taste of love result in flooding of my feelings so? Why yet the drifting thought of jaded eyes should take my thoughts to places I can't go? How shall my heart become whole once again when nothing passes by my fingertips? No hardened muscles do I ever feel no painful pressure full upon my lips. How next to dabble in the art of love as none till now has ever given back an ounce of gold, just pennies for my hopes which rapidly are turning now to black. |

Sandra: To give one's heart with expectation breaks it apart in isolation For some gifts can't be given back if like a plant they have caused a crack ...but I know what you mean. It's easier to talk about serenity than it is to live it.  -MVS You CAN make a difference, but first you should learn how: http://educate-yourself.org/intro.shtml |

Sandra, when the day comes that you are once again in love...I am going to raise a toast to you....you so deeply deserve that in your life...and I wish you that gift more than you might ever know. Yes, good to see you gracing the pages again, even if only sporadically. |

I too feel the ache in this. Sad. But someday you will know how, for answers often lie just around the corner. Best to you -- Susan Happiness isn't something that happens to you, it's created from within you. Joy is a state of mind. |

Sandra, you have such a beautiful soul. One day true love will find you. Patience after all is a virtue. Hugs, Chris  Life itself is the most wonderful fairy tale. |

A touch that’s warm and makes me whole A love that’s pure and true A body that I love to hold The all that’s known to few To find respect unspoken in word but with the heart To feel the warmth of skin to skin and love To find your place of sanctuary before hope does depart Is what I pray each night to God above To hold the dream that’s calling each night till mornings wake Would be what makes survival worth the pain To hear the words I love you, not thoughts of life’s mistake Would bring back my desires that barely now remain Dear Sandra, enjoyed the read, hope you find some love and someone to hold soon dear friend, take care and be well. Sincerely Rick |

You are all so sweet, and Rick, that poem was so perfect. Sometimes life just makes you feel this way, I'm ok overall though. Sandra |

That is a question that only time can answer, I think....and one that carries with it the pain of absent love. Beautifully written, as you always do, and it touched my heart....~S~ Music washes away from the soul the dust of everyday life |

"How next to dabble in the art of love" We are always so hopeful for the next one, wishing somehow we've learned and so has the next potential in our life. Well done. KJ Through rubble and trouble and dark of night |

This had some very unique metaphors. I enjoyed reading it. Somehow relate to it as well. |
