Description
AFTER MIDNIGHT
I read a letter I wrote
I wrote it one night when I felt sad and unloved
I wrote it one night when it seemed no one cared
No one knew me
No one listened
No one saw
But I knew
I listened
I saw
And that made it better
So now it’s another night
And I’m writing this
Because once again
I wonder
If you know
If you listen
If you see
And that makes it better. I don’t know why.

Beautiful prose Marilyn, and yes we do look and yes we do care, and as long as you keep posting, writing, photographing. There will always be someone looking and caring, and I hope that knowledge makes things a bit better. Excellent words very profound and full of meaning. Bravo!!!!! Hugs xx

What a wonderful, evocative poem! I love the technique of repetition, creates for such a dramatic tone; creates for a sadness as well, and yet there is some form of resolution as the pattern repeats itself on "another night". The beauty of literature, and writing... to express the self, and to be able to give oneself a voice--even if its only for that individual to listen. A very healing, and most beautiful piece... and a lovely composition to accompany it!

This is a stunning piece of Prose, Marilyn, so full of emotions that don't just stay in one limited part of the whole mood-spectrum. There's concise order to this, but an emotional shift that works beautifully! So much of what you write is incredibly revealing, showing every element of a life that is vibrant and alive! Fantastic work, and the image that accompanies it is utterly gorgeous! I love the mood that you've captured there too. The thumbnail, with the purple scrawl of writing reminds me of a book cover. Great stuff, as always! Richly emotional, deliciously heady. Evocative of so many things. This is definitely one of my favorites among the pieces that you've written, and the pieces that you've written are brilliantly done!

Of course I care! lol and so sorry we could not hang out this weekend.. sometimes problems just crop up and we have no control of that really. also quite a dark and wet dismal day... perhaps next time of course! I will get to mails after I catch up a bit here, plus the Tiger Game in Arizona is about over :-) hugssss and great photo too!!!

If I didn't know better I'd say that was a shot of the contrails and/or vapor trails emitted by high flying jet aircraft, or possibly the effluence of a rogue cloud. As for the soul-searching prose, my sentiments exactly. An adequate time for a primal scream.

When you validate yourself, you don't need someone else to validate you. Just being who you are is more than enough. You're on the right track, Baby! :)

If a tree falls in the forest does anyone hear it?? Of Course they do!! It is always heard, it is always felt, it is always seen even though we don't know it!!! Very Heartfelt feelings here Marilyn!!!
