    Story Hour


    Tell me,
    One more time,
    Of the world
    We made,
    Its words
    And signs, 
    The tinsel decorations, 
    Strung
    Falling
    From your eyes
    To mine,
    Our songs,
    Then bind me 
    Once again
    Inside its limitations
    So I won't forget
    And try to breathe
    Where there's no air.

  • This pains me.  You know the language well.

  • Trying to breathe when there's no air. I like that.

    I wrote something on my blog a few days ago in a protected post. You SHOULD be able to read it (although some have had trouble). It's about the death of my cousin. another alcoholic in our family goes down.

  • This describes a time in my life. It stopped me in my tracks when I read this. You should enter it or have it published.

    BTW do you have any facts on Zoloft and it's how it affects the heart? I am now on 200 mg. a day.
