Viewed As Thoughts
hurdles to jump
great turning point
switching from thoughts
and walking away
you did that
Not I
hugging the dreams
piling the cents
eyes wild at midnight
counting and counting
I did that
not you
taking a gamble
and waking one day
talking to myself
empty screens no reply
and the castle in the air
tumbled down.

Dear Brenda (may I call you that) I'm just recollecting old hurt. Licking scars. :) but sometimes one castle tumbles and another pop up. Hope springs...and all that. Thanks for dropping by.

Very relatable...
"hugging the dreams
piling the cents
eyes wild at midnight
counting and counting"
Sounds so much like my current situation.
I thank you for this piece Grace.

talking to myself
empty screens no reply
Never make time for someone who doesn't
appreciate nor acknowledge yours. You are
too valuable to stay in that lesson long.
This is a language recognized by everyone,
methinks.

Excellent look at hope and disappointment. There's the early optimism:
"hugging the dreams
piling the cents
eyes wild at midnight
counting and counting"
Then things don't quite work out:
"taking a gamble
and waking one day
talking to myself
empty screens no reply
and the castle in the air
tumbled down. "
At least you took the gamble and will hopefully still be willing to do so. If there are no replies they don't know what they're missing. Excellent if sad work Grace.
