Your pain has
reached across the miles
I know you are no
stranger to grief -
I know no words
to bring you comfort
Just know...
Despite the distance
you are in my thoughts
Despite the distance
your are in my heart
I hope to bring
you a moment filled with joy
Despite the distance
there is a place in my heart
that only you can fill
Despite the distance
please know
I love you!

For my best friend who
lost someone she loves

Is there such
a thing as a soul mate?

I don't know

I'm just learning
about me
How can I expect
someone else
to know me?

Granted
It would be
Lovely to
really be understood
or
would it?

I must travel
my own path
lonely though it may be
at times

And as for being
understood
I suspect it is highly
overrated...
Or
is it?

She stood waiting.
Waiting as the stars await the suns eventual death.
As the desert awaits that one translucent drop of absolete euphoria.
Her lips cracked open,
A sliver of fragile hope escaping its tremors.
Fluttering away.
She is surrounded by exquisite misery,
Drowning in hysteria.
Day folding into night,
The moon running circles.
She stood waiting,
With the sound of stinging memories reverberating endlessly.
Touch, smell, touch, love.
All catapulting into that final crescendo,
Where all those moments
Flow into the sea of those hauntingly beautiful words,
**I Am Here
I was inspired by this one line-
"The wait is long, my dream of you does not end.”

Take me away with you, love.
Take me to the promised Land.
To the place where I'm safe in your arms.
Because I don't want to be anywhere else.
Because that is the only place where I belong.
Finally.
After all these breaths, all these hushed whispers,
You and me by the sea.
We can either drown or ride these waves.
What's your decision,love?
For I don't mind dying if I die in you.
My heart aches too.
Out of the night that covers me,
      Black as the Pit from pole to pole,
I thank whatever gods may be
      For my unconquerable soul.

In the fell clutch of circumstance
      I have not winced nor cried aloud,
Under the bludgeonings of chance
      My head is ******, but unbowed.

Beyond this place of wrath and tears
      Looms but the horror of the shade,
And yet the menace of the years
      Finds, and shall find me, unafraid.

It matters not how strait the gate,
      How charged with punishments the scroll,
I am the master of my fate:
      I am the captain of my soul.
