Bits and Pieces

My thoughts, as of late, have been as widely scattered as my emotions...and equally unresolved. I'm starting to put some of these rampant thoughts down, because I don't want to lose them to the abyss burred beneath analytical papers and objectivity. So, here are the stanzas that are impeding my term paper....

---

Wander in a starlit
And silent night
Awake in a dream
Chasing shadows of light

---

Only one heart hears
These whispers and tears
One hand to hold back
The questions and fears

---

You have to start somewhere,
beginning.
Though in no way prepared,
sudden.
Taken completely by surprise,
unexpected.
Caution often hesitates,
lingering.
A heart can only hold so much,
surrendered.
Immediacy takes precedence,
overlooked.
Waiting fades with time,
changed.
Making way for something new,
ending.
