Through the silence I pretend... I smile and make up reasons busy myself.....with life I do fine enough I have a strong heart you know.. until I close my eyes find you there, in my dreaming it leaves me undone ....that missing you ache.... I’m always gonna love you and no matter how romantic the notion even I know I’m pathetic... ~SEA~ [This message has been edited by SEA (03-21-2006 10:16 PM).] |

Well, you might settle for that self-analysis. But I prefer to call it a broken heart. Been there and time is a really good thing. Yup'am I love you from any angle. If tears could build a stairway and memories a lane, |

Well, SEA, I don't think you're pathetic...to be able to write like this. I do feel the longing and what Larry says is true. ....jo |

"until I close my eyes find you there, in my dreaming" No, not Pathos; awareness. This is an excellent write. Thank you for sharing it. |

There is nothing....nothing at all pathetic about love....and especially not when it is expressed so humbly. ~~(¸¸¸¸ºº> ~~(¸¸¸¸ºº> ~~(¸¸ ¸¸ºº> ~~~(¸¸ER¸¸ºº> |

lemme SEA now ... you being pathetic is akin to the Pacific sunset being nice to look at. you beng pathetic is like calling the ceiling of the Sistine Chapel competent artwork. you being pathetic is IMPOSSIBLE!!!!!!!! Fool, said my Muse to me, look in thy heart and write. |

Pathetic? Maybe just undying love... In any case, this poem certainly isn't pathetic... “We are all travelers in the wilderness of this world, and the best that we can find in our travels is an honest friend.” –Robert Louis Stevenson |

I found your words almost embarressing..like you were embarrssed to speak them...and yet the words fit your feeling perfectly..you honestly said what was in your heart..and that came across...but it sounded almost like you didnt believe your own words...that ''something'' else wrote the words..and you would be right..it was your heart speaking..you cannot hide from your heart...and on this evidence it is something to be treasured..thank you for the words Sea.. Goldenrose. |

Susan, You are anything but pathetic my friend. You are a hopeless romantic, and not a thing wrong with that! Very good to read you. Write if you get a chance. Take care & hugs, Amy "When life gives you sorrow, may you experience the spirit of laughter" |

even the Sea burns when flying too close to the flame... not pathetic though -- pathetic is the infatuated person who can't stop talking about how wonderful 'he' is every third minute... this, this is the sweetness of life -- and the bitterness of loss -- we are all pathetic -- we are all magnificent and you are glorious! |

Very sorrowful, yet I can see that while longing is inevitable it is also comforting to the soul. Once agian inspiring ICE, I missed feeling through your art. EAB |

Susan, anything you write is beautiful, just as love is beautiful. But, I do know this feeling of thinking of how deep a love is and possibly not ever being able to know fully the potential of that love. I know how deep that hurts. Hugs, Ethel |

Susan~ This was difficult to read only because I relate so deeply. I, too know the longing, the wondering, the dissection of 'what could have been' all too well ~ you penned this exquisitely and painfully. It truly is one of your best, and if you don't mind, I'm going to save this in my library, keep it to myself and dedicate it to David.. Melissa~ Intellectually I know that Canada is no better than any other country. Emotionally I KNOW that Canada is the best country in the world! |

I am not sure about being "pathetic..." Even if it might feel that way I just get reminded of this of my own, if you will allow me to share my words here 5230 Made to Think 29 March 2006 We ask ourselves the same questions The ones we want to know Were we born does to each day Another part of us forward grow What of the departed Those ones we truly loved A mother's child - a brother lost the baby we never knew Was this love could it be true “I know that thou canst do every thing, and that no thought can be withholden from thee.” Job 42: 2 KJV © 2006 Christopher W Herbert (a New Zealand Poet) a poet who cares |
