Well, then, I guess that's something else that we have in common. You're so young to have experienced such a thing. Don't dwell on it, move on and if there is something that you want to do with your life get on with it now, don't wait for something to happen. Make it happen. Like the song says: "I'd rather be sorry for something I've done than for something that I didn't do"...

Endless Night
by Frenchy inwhen i'm in a melancholy mood i almost always think of an old shanty (perhaps because i grew up in one) nestled on the side of a mountain (perhaps because i love the mountains so) with tall green pines jutting straight up to the sky.
i think of slow, drizzling rain tapping out a melody on a tin roof while a cold wind sways the green pines.
i was in one of those moods when i wrote 'endless night'.

Thanks, Seven. It must be the hard life, it sort of puts you close to reality! Have you ever had a night such as that? Really?

Yes, there are a lot of things about the past that I don't miss. I remember the wringer washer very well, thank you. I got my hand caught in the wringer once. Ouch! To cut down on the ironing (remember that quaint old custom?) we would put some metal, adjustable frames down the legs of our blue jeans so that when they dried they looked like they had been pressed, a crease and all! Ya'll have anything like that in Indiana?

Endless Night
I've never seen a night so long or so quiet
As cold winds whine and labor in their fight
To traverse through bough and limb and height.
If God made the day, then the Devil made this night
-----Tonight my memories are chasing her in my mind
And what havoc they wreak in their desperate plight
To catch her, hold her, only to find,
She has vanished, slipped away into the everlasting night
-----Still I don't know what I did wrong,
What I should have said, should have done
I would never have guessed I could hurt so long
But then I never expected her to be gone
-----I walk to the window and peer into the endless night
High above the tree lined horizon hangs the hunter's moon
Over tall, dark pines jutting up toward the ebony sky
A night bird calls out and my heart is filled with gloom
-----Unbidden you came into my life and set my soul afire
Now you're gone and my soul is dark and cold
And it's another's lips that sets your heart on fire
On this cold, lonely night, it's someone else you hold
-----I'm afraid this night will outlast the bottle of wine
Then what will I do, while I wait on the light
Of the sun breaking o'er the tall pines
To give me reprieve till the next eternal night.

LOL@Red! This may be hard to believe but when I was growing up we lived in houses that had no ceiling. Yes, that's right. You could look straight up and see the metal roof. The walls were made of upright cypress boards. That was all that was between you and the elements. They would stuff paper in the cracks in the winter time to keep the wind out. There were no windows, only shutters. I remember the house we were living in the year I started school. This one had a dirt floor!
Hey, I've been in some caves that looked mighty inviting!

Can we get to know each other now?
by waiting ini've picked up a little about each of us on the db, but we're a reclusive little group, aren't we?.
well, my picture won't be going up any time soon, but i'll put out some personal information and hopefully others will too.
makes chatting more fun, don't you think?.
