Listen young lady

new vision through old eyes Trying to import wisdom To those so naive but so much smarter Tyring to have them wake up each day With a new curiosity..desire to know. Take your beauty and add knowledge So you become the complete package And don't surrender your love To just anyone who isn't at least... Sign in to see full entry.

The Shadow

As I sat in my living room one morning, I noticed a shadow beneath the shelf. The day progressed and the sun did rise, but the shadow stayed there by itself. As evening neared, the other shadows, drifted slowly acroos the room, but in place the single shadow remained, could it be some omen of doom?... Sign in to see full entry.

A Soul Gone Solitary

####this is an old poem. Has no refection on current circumstance) There seems to be an emptiness, a void that I can feel, that I thought was imaginary, but am now convinced is real.
