2:11am ... misty thoughts




The Empty Place

there is my pillow 

the place I lay my head

there are the sheets

that cover me in my slumber

there is the empty place

that has nothing to offer

here is where I lie

waiting for my dreams to come true

This goes straight to the heart.
That empty place is where only the best of the best may someday lay his head.
Nothing less, nothing less. You, dear sister deserve the best!

Oh boy!This empty place - the gray zone, where darkness and light coexist; it's up to us to choose if we are going to follow the light or the darkness tomorrow. Dreams can come truth ony if we decide to make them happen. And that reminds me of a quote: when you want something, all the universe conspires in helping you to achieve it(Paulo Coelho - The Alchemist)
