Sometimes In The Quiet I don't miss you much anymore, just sometimes in the quiet, the memory of us is far too old, the bond frayed, I cannot tie it so I guess I'll be moving on much sooner than I had thought, you were a mountain I peaked long ago and on the downside, a lesson taught: once a mountain is conquered, you must then leave it behind you and move on to the next one, it won't come there to find you... it may be hard to see where you are and on the downside, you may deny it, just listen, there are things you'll hear sometimes in the quiet. |

This is fantastic, Dixie. And, so true. When we sit in the quite, our minds tend to wonder back to the memories of the past. Mine does! |

yep, sometimes the sound of your own small voice comes through and you realize that there's something to be said from yourself that you've been avoiding and then the truth about your inner feelings sets you at ease through good and the bad. Eric |
