Today is filled with promise, even though the heat can weaken the spirit and love has taken a vacation. Because in this silence the pen is mightier than the sword and my storytelling paints an "unforgettable portrait" of feelings for what once was or could have been. A distraction in life, that's what it was, one that threw me off the path of realness kissing me into a falsehood, losing myself in a "tapestry of unquilted love"... Addictions of the heart, wanting to love and be loved, opening up to rainbows of the mind where heaven touched a bit of this earth, always on the other side of midnight. Words, vampire-like, or maybe witchcraft in disguise, where serenity was a falsehood and the blank page ahead of me was filled with my fantasies of belonging. A feeling needed to make it through the days when emptiness took a strong hold and losses left a gaping hole that anyone could have filled. I was a victim of heart, torturing myself into becoming but not without reason, and now I see what blinded me before and I know I am going to be ok because it has happened... once again I have fallen in love . . . . with life itself and the beauty of its touch. And no one, NO ONE can ever take that away from me... again. M "Love is not blind - It sees more and not less, but because it sees more, it is willing to see less."

"Words, vampire-like, or maybe witchcraft in disguise, where serenity was a falsehood" Well now, if I were paranoid... I applaud the strength in this, m. *chuckling* and I swear if I still lived in here, I would wonder...shaking me head. |

MAureen, I love this. I feel it. We have so many strong emotions, I wonder why they all feel so hard to handle. Sandra |

oh M, this was so wonderful! Isn't it great to finally awaken and find there can be new beginnings? or even better beginnings? "too bad ignorance isn't painful" |
