Cool! It's Multiple Choice.

Help Me!!  She's mad! and I don't mean in a good way!

With the filming of New Moon in full swing, I guess it's no surprise that I've been revisiting passages in the book. In doing so, I was again Imagining the way Bella was feeling, ultimately reliving my own moments.  Well, as my Grandmother used to say: "Better out than in"


This poem is:

a) Inspired by true events
b) Written from the perspective of a fictional character
c) Proof that I'm not a poet (and know it)
d) A good indication that I need help
e) All of the above



 Breathe 
by Tess

I turned my face up to the sun, felt it's warmth, and thought of you.
It's like breathing
I conjured your face and lovingly retraced it's shape.
It's like breathing
I'm missing you. But you're not here. I know this.
It's like breathing
 Though I'm alone, I still feel you.
It's like breathing
It's dark. I turn my face up to the moon and whisper my thoughts to the night ~ willing the wind to carry them to your ears.
It's like breathing
Tomorrow, I will awake, seek the sun, and think of you.
It's like breathing




Love,
Tess
