Be Still My Heart.

As I step into the dark

Of that which is unseen

Do I wrap my hands around

Which I know has never been

Do I suck into my lungs the air

Of deep despair

Or do I offer up my eyes to what

I know will not be there

Can you tell me what I feel

In the depth of midnight hour

Or release from me the scent

Of a wound that will not heal

Am I just another pawn in the

Game that never ends

Or or am I just another soul

that floats above the earth

In a heart that never mends.

	Of course I am going through your pieces to see alll that is there. I guess I'll see you in say what, three years??? lol This was really good! I loved the fear of the unkown, for lord knows we all have been there.. Yet you bring it forth with such clarity that one can't seem to bring to words.. You it comes with such ease.. This one I can relate to only too well.. Many pieces to prove it.. Sighhhhhhh.. I yi yi yi yi yi!!! Moonie xxx Respond To This Comment

	The uncertaintly drains a person. Answers are evasive when they are supposed to be within. I can really relate to this poem. Thank you for expressing this state of confusion so clearly. ~Barbara~ Respond To This Comment

	Sometimes in life we just have to jump... It's scary and it can be a heart breaker if it does't work out.....but you know sometimes you just have to take a chance...You will never know if you don't try.... Hugs ~ Scarlett Respond To This Comment

	Bittersweet and beautiful, Graham! For what it's worth, I believe it was Pope who said" Tis better to have loved and lost than to have never loved at all". Be well, my friend. Michael Respond To This Comment
