Reality Shadows hidden away return doubts, fears I thought I overcome They begin as whispers and plant their seeds of loathing and darkness I let myself think I was enough That I could be all you needed I let myself believe that I had found an ever lasting love Now as reality becomes clear and this pain settles in my heart I realize I was chasing dreams that could never belong to me "There is always some madness in love. But there is also always some reason in madness." -Friedrich Nietzsche |

thought of a very easy to read book for you, but cannot remember the name of it... it's about love, change, which is life constantly changing...evolving...and about sea shells, she uses the ocean as an example...ohhhh darn... anyway, this was great and one thing there is no dream on the face of this earth that you couldn't have, but...perhaps that particular dream wasn't good enough for YOU? Think about it... ![]() Have a happy 4th |

Thank you all for your comments ![]() It seems my muse goes away when I am happy *chuckles* Some days I have MASSIVE bouts of insecurity... and that is when I manage to get something out. That is where this came from. For you who know me, Dave and I are fine and very much in love. Some days I just get.. well let's just say overly emotional *chuckles* |

Reality might change if you change your way of looking at things. This very beautiful and touching write shows indeed a great deal of insecurity, but I am sure that by expressing this through poetry, you will improve your self-confidence... and see yourself as you REALLY are: whole and beautiful. One of the intrinsic characteristics of our dreams is that they are not limited ... they are vast! Welcome back! Love, Margherita |
