    Wow, this is powerful, Rene. I resonate. I keep a lot of things unsaid with certain people too. With some folks, it's necessary.

    Whew, this is profound, Rene! We really do leave such a lot unsaid....too much probably...but how to change?

    Such few words saying so much. I hope the speaker gets a chance to speak those clouds into the world... if s/he wants to.

    Very few words to imply the immensity of those words held back. I really, really like this one!

    And it would be a sad thing to do for both- let go, let it all out- live!

i don't like eggs but you knew this already i know you're thinking such a terrible waste but it's not, you see i'm feeding them to the dog she loves them just as much as i know she loved you and the way you walked her as if every single thing she sniffed mattered to you as well sorry, dear pardon my red wine opera crowd violin string tugging (your words) i ramble at breakfast like a fussy percolator but you knew this already morning is when i am most honest and vulnerable i know that's why you left after dinner oh god dammit you i miss you so much what i did before us is a mystery and what i do now is insanity i'm frying up eggs just to smell them again and to perhaps coax you down, from wherever you are for breakfast did you know i believe that there is still a ghost of a chance Rene Foran ~  April 2011 photo by Tess Kincaid for Magpie Tales click for more info
