guess it was easier afterall
to pull up her hem
and run again

she thought it would be harder
since she was in the water
over her head over heals

and the gown was so long
but she guessed when you are used
to carrying the weight

even when shopping
it is not that big a deal
to hurry it further down a road

to another store front poetry
where they write of missing
and never do enjoy the knowing

that would make their lonely real

I know this, but also know the heartbreak of making the lonely real, for a day, two or three...then, poof, it's over...and the loss is way to much to bear...

thats what this brought to mind...on the other hand...whose to say, the Runaway Bride doesn't have very valid reasons?  My son and I were discussing this...

You are such a hoot DS!  I so love your play on words.  
Reminds me of taking a walk on the wild side,
and the low spark of high heeled boys.  

Nevertheless, I enjoyed the knowing, and my lonely is real.

  i find your play
   of words
    shimmering~

My spirit will rise
above the sea~
There will be no drowning
of my soul or me~
