I miss

How Do I Speak to her, To read her these pages she have yet to see, without words with No heat, she barely knows of The sudden storms that are yet to Be seen, greeting her heart and burn her blinds, I miss that girl , unbroken by a man's dumb smile, unfazed nor disgraced by cracks Wish she knew how much deeper love can turn black, I've surrendered to the rust, soon after settling the dust, I now know more what Mangled hearts can trust, Now ,I remain Content with My old Knees.

Always love a double etheree, your take made me smile too as you mentioned dumb smiles, lol. Sometimes we learn much later that so many good things can turn into darkness and leave us reminiscing and missing golden days while sitting in our chair of nostalgia! Youv expressed very well here and its so good to see you writing! Congratulations on your win

Well done on doing a double etheree you did it really well.. you really do make me smile, you say profound words, but then you put a little humour into it also.. Only you can make the change you desire.... Best of luck in this contest..
