Her gaze often wanders
beyond this mortal realm
filled with dreams of freedom
to remove these ties that bind
a life filled with passing people
windows that open when doors are closed
faith that falters with each moment
when trust is torn with each dark deed
her mind is a constant reminder
of where each soul might go
still waters and deep, deep places
where myth and magic often flow
Her gaze does often wander
to other places unseen
filled with gentle musings
of how it might have been...

this is going to be a strange comment
but this description is me
I realize I' m sounding vain
but ya! this is me
every line
were you descibing yourself?
well done
God bless you...

You read me here..
your words spoke many of my thoughts and emotions
That feeling sometimes empty, the longing and the muse of life I seach
Thank you and best wishes Julie
