A Whisper In the Dark

Lost in the rain, I did't see your smile... Tugging on the strings of my heart for a while... I reach my hands through the darkness... Clenching and holding all that's endless... I try to scream but whispers steal my voice... And only silence and blindness are my choice... Like a drop of rain that never reaches the ground... My cries of desperation fall to a all to similar sound...

Mike, we all find ourselves in that place, at one time or other. I know because I have been there quite recently...hope you find your way out though, it is better on the other side. One love. Joy Wells

Michael, okay, you know what happens when you are asking for one last round.. LOL~ you ask for another round... and here I am finding myself devoted to your words all over again. Even though i can image your soul lost in the rain. I can also feel the joyfulness that will occur once the rain reaches the grounds. All will dry, and see again... I like the mercury sting you provide. You are one of a kind and don't ever change for anyone. You will always be my number #1 poet by far. My cries, have no ending, ... And you my, dear Michael will achieve all the same sounding smiles... take care,..PD
