Write me a poem he said so I hold out a handful of words tossing them into the air face lifted as they rain broken syllables and sobs around me and form dangling participles of precipitation blending with my tears mending the cracks of my broken heart and the poem is really one long sentence that honestly says absolutely nothing. I know it is not a keeper it's a maudlin attempt to express feelings that I am unsure of building walls for me to hide behind making a sanctuary of loneliness. Write me a poem he said and I thought of words of love yet, I feel only words that barb me cutting until I bleed helping me feel as I try so hard not to. He said to write Him a poem I'll try again tomorrow. aziza |

Aziza~ 'I hold out a handful of words tossing them into the air' I like that little thought~ I do that sometimes ... hoping they land in my ink with a huge splash~ *Huglets*  ~*Marge*~ ~*The sound of a kiss is not as strong as that of a cannon, but it's echo endures much longer*~ |

Smiling at this... I could have written it... in some ways, I have... those who don't [write] will never understand the urgency of breath |
