Between the Lines

BETWEEN THE LINES
It's hidden in between each line
your eyes will ever read,
it is the secret, yours and mine,
thoughts you will always need,
they come to you while you're asleep
and dreaming all I've known,
they flow on like a river deep,
and you are not alone.

Comparing it to things you know
it makes no sense you think,
I've loved you and I've let it show;
I am your missing link;
but I can never let you see
how deep the river flows,
not even if it's meant to be,
and that's the way it goes.

I've many things to call upon
instead of memories,
like love that never will be gone,
nobody ever sees;
but I will tell the truth of it
until my dying day,
between each line, there is a bit
of things I never say.

ps ... watching the weather map right now, the movement through the E Texas storming seems to be moving towards New Orleans area, I kind of knew that anyway, so hope you are okay and have a good umbrella.

Okay Judy, I will today, and as I recall, this poem BETWEEN THE LINES, one I really like more than a lot, had a lot of Judy Konos influence in it. Thank you.

Ron need a favor please! Would you be kind enough to read Edwin Hofert's poem " TRUTH UNKNOWN" and let me know what you think as far as his poetic abilities. His writings, sometimes, reminds me of you. I hope to hear from you. Best wishes, Judy . . . http://www.poetrysoup.com/poem/truth_unknown_677342
