Somewhere... out there...

0 posted 2005-10-28 02:23 AM



caught between

here...

                        and...

                                                     there...
and here
            
                 in the middle...

there is

nothing

only
               this..

and
       me...

and a
handful of

random

e        
                  mo
     tions

playing hide

                              and seek

with my
sanity

or used-to-be...

laughing
as I cry
over
             that...

or
    this...

nothing...

but a
downpour of
dignity

tiny droplets of

m

e

drowning in this
storm of
my own
making

raindancing

for a better
tomorrow

tonight

There is definitely something about your nothing! There was brilliance ~ and sadness ~ to your words, which, btw, were not only artistically laid out but done so with  tremendous impact!

Ms Vicky, you done did good with this one! Mind you, I could say that about all of your writes!

Very good to read you again!
