covering yourself to appear unseen, but
when the stars reflect
off the blackness of your veil
how can he resist perceiving you?
softest of whispers may be unheard, though
echoes chime through separations
for how long will your thoughts remain suppressed, when
two can share one dream? the same dream…
run if you like, but
how do you hide from you own shadow?
never unpray your prayers
you only receive what is good for you, or
no more than what you are able to bear
there are times when destiny stands her ground
observe with patience where she may lead you…
Fabulous, like some of the other older ones I’ve still to get down to reading!

I promise you that my post yesterday “About leisurely drifting…” was made before I saw your post… Sometimes, just letting go and following your destiny makes so much sense, doesn’t it? Two can indeed have the same dream…

In as much as we have the ability to shape our destinies, perhaps sometimes we should just wait and see what has been planned for us.
Thanks Robert.
