eye
pressed against
the glass of
fallen memory 
still i cry
had i known then?
yes
still i'd ride

    It is better to live without regret. I would change nothing, for fear it would change today.

    As the others say - i applaud the conviction of choice...some may say whatever we choose the outcome is the same..so best it is ours..and wholly believed...

    it's therapeutic to cry. you'll be surprised, next time you are enjoying the ride once again. the ride of life of course

Magpie Tales #37 woke up this mornin' beside myself just me, myself starin' at myself forty days bleedin' into forty nights i can't make it right can't stand my sight risin' river drownin' hopes of love no sign of light from them clouds above down below just a lonely gaze silent and haunting through the smoky haze green valley memories swirl and tease my head and what you said before you fled promised me that i'd find love again a true soul friend at different rainbow ends risin' river drownin' hopes of love no sign of light from them clouds above down below just a lonely gaze silent and haunting through the smoky haze Rene ~ 2010 Whoa! Sorry for the mega depressing magpie!  I even bummed myself out after reading this. It is in no way autobiographical, so worry not gentle readers. I usually go with my first thoughts when doing Magpies...my first thought upon seeing the photo prompt was loneliness......
