Just a thought....
Don't compare your life to others'. You have no idea what their journey is all about.

I'm not here



its me
but i'm not here
i'm a figment of your imagination

if you want
you will find me
out where the eleflowers grow

but then
i may not be there
i may just be jumping in moon puddles

over there
frozen in time
by the icy fingers of the sun

This poem was first posted on Yahoo 360º, quite a while before the move to Multiply. At the time, I was actually looking for a way to tell my friends that I was feeling low. Strangely, writing the poem pulled me out of that. Ah the power of words... at least, words that make no sense whatsoever : )

  4. i definitely remember that magnificent picture and vaguely remember the poem. Wonderful tint!! Oh to be wandering in flowering fields or jumping in (warm) moon puddles. :) i've been in a place where i wanted to dissapear (for a loooooong time) and have no one find me. I'm glad that putting this down helped you to feel better. Thanks for reposting!

  6. I thought it made sense...maybe that's because I live in Down? But I could feel it. Save one of those puddles for me please.
