BALaNCE

Life without love is
nonsense for all, believe me.
love without Life sucks;
so, if both are left wanting
not a chance in hell...

Lost but Living

A man alone is
A man in need of helping
Help me help you please
Lost but Living I’ll be me
Help me or let me drown...

Wind

Us, not so much, yes?
And then it was gone like wind
What was, isn’t,...

THin WAlls

"Yes!" "More!" "That way...eh, no..; more right."
THin WAlls at night;
Reveal the things we need not know;
—about neighbors—
But…it’s all right, we suppose.

 
THin WAlls at night speak words lips can’t form;
Translating Darkness to Light....

The line you write, and I’ll quote it: “I’m screaming loudly, waving my arms frantically, let me be not invisible but crystal clear, my love exists my loves right here,” was so Spot On! I about lost it—in a great way, of course! Those words are ME 100%! Thank you for weaving them so succinctly into what is a wonderful work, expressing the doubts most of us have but can’t—or won't—express. :D

A muse, a disappearance, a disappointment. It happens, I know. :/

These thoughts are products of a serious life disruption; relationship-related. I write to relieve. Anyway, "cAtCh uP" is focused more on the notion of "out" expiration dates; stamped, unbeknownst to us, at birth. The sh** we deal with here—love, joy, loss—is all, apparently a part of 'it'...whatever that is. *I digress* The POINT, I guess, is simple. Do sh** before it's too late...no regrets.

That last stanza—about lying on a couch, pensive moods, & the bliss of solitude—really struck a chord. Because, in my life so far, those moments of solitude truly represent the only times at which I can come close to replicating anything like solace. Life is so dang busy, and I feel like a part of this poem is an adult way of saying, "stop & smell the roses (well, daffodils in this case)," you know what I mean?
