and here i thought my thread would slide right under the radar due to my extended absence. thanks for all the feedback kids... i swear i'll reply to it directly... but first i wanted to get this up and posted for you guys. what's it about hmm? i'll break it down real simple-like: W/T with a side of snuggles. anybody want fries with that?





curl up to you

rest my head

upon your breast

breathe in your warmth

bask in your glow

stroke your skin

close my eyes

believe that

maybe

we do have

a future

held in your arms

your breathing

becomes even

you pull me close

content

we sleep





*woof*

[bulldog tidnab]

all of you for the feedback.. just popping in quick to drop off the latest bit of drivel...

a summary: Willow... Tara... naked.. sex is most assuredly involved..

any questions class?





routine and distraction

lulling me towards

sleep

that unaware time

i yearn for



though this night

you caress me

fingertips

suggestive tones



i tell you

i want you

love you

whispered so softly

that i must breathe the words

away from my lips



there are no plans

no maps to

determine the way

we reach our destination

not rushing

breath against breath

and still i

want you.

love you.

after.

always.





i should also mention that in it's own way... it's also for the girl. my love. my.... my... well... my fucking everything alright?

*woof with a wiggle*

Beautiful...and ummm...amazing. Sorry...you always leave me speechless, Andi...

It's hard to be precise, though. Alternate universes don't stay put. Sending him to a specific place is like, like trying to hit a puppy by throwing a live bee at it. Which is a weird image and you should all just forget it. -Willow in Triangle

[tanniyn]

Um...Hi!! Don't know if you remember me but I am that shy dragon that just tends to pop into threads. I just wanted to tell you that was an amazing poem. I am astounded. Thank you for sharing your wonderful gift with all of us. I, personally, feel privileged to read such wonderful work. Now this dragon shall just go back to hiding in the shadows.

Wonderful poem

[bulldog tidnab]

Thought I'd reply to you good people... and *gasp* individually even!



Steph - See I knew sex would pull people in. Nice banana. Now, I'm probably gonna regret asking this, but why the hell do we have a banana emoticon anyway? Oh... wait.. heh. Thanks for the compliment babe, but you know... dem words? Dey gots to play back wit me for dem to work yes?



JEN!!!!! - HI!!! I miss my favoritist kitten cat in the whole wide world. I'm glad you liked this. Means a lot coming from you. Don't worry about the single thing. All things in time as they say. Oh.. one other thing... *dives after your tail slides across floor and comes to a stop in a dawg-like heap* Well hell...



Aimster - Damn. Speechless again? I gotta work on that. Glad you liked it though. And can I just say... your sig cracks me up everytime I see it... it's my favorite bit of Willow dialogue.



tanniyn - Of course I remember you. Dragons... they are hard to forget. Feel free to pop in anytime you like. I'm glad you liked it, but you don't have to bow. Makes me feel like I'm on a pedestal and to be honest, I'm quite terrified of heights.



SJ - Thank you. And the dancing dude? Groovy.



Alright.. new one. Not so much with the happy. On the timeline between OMWF and TR. Yeah... what fun... wheee.





you're a liar

and

so am i

you do these things all

of them

they hurt me

kill me

make me less than i am

i let you

because i love

you

you who said i was

oh goddess

you said

you said

you loved me

would take care of me

that i held your heart

but i don't

we both know

that

somewhere else

something else

does

you can't get beyond it

well

neither can i

you're tearing me apart

and it means

nothing

NOTHING

to you

oh

sure

i

know

you have these

acts of contrition

that face

a demeanor i can't be angry with

so cute

loveable and

all set to make me feel

that it will be

alright

but cute?

cute can't work anymore

you break my heart

every damn minute of

every damn day

and i

let you

because i love

you

[funkyasian]

another great poem...you've captured the despair so well...and it hurts to know that one can inflict pain as great as that on another...but as we saw, it happens. anyway...as usual, you're great with the words...and see, the words decided to play back this time too!!



love you andi...

there was a silly little dawg who was in love with her own words, among other things. she wrote all the time. it seemed as though the words would never cease to come. then one day, the little dawg set her pen aside and concentrated on other interests, namely the pursuit of love. of course she made sure to return to her pen from time to time, but as time passed she found herself holding it less and less. then one deceivingly sunny afternoon, she was shocked to discover that her distraction (that whole love thing) was going to be cut off from her. the little dawg was shaken and went walkabout. she decided to try to return to her first love, her pen. alas, she found that it no longer seemed to be working....



ok, so i can't tell a story for shit, but i think you get the idea. i apologize for the sporadic posting that has gone on in this thread for awhile. right now... right now is not a good time... i have been writing for the past few hours, but it's all crap so i'm choosing not to inflict it on any of you lovely people. ain't i sweet?

maybe something in a while... we'll see...

also, thank you Steph, SJ and Jean for leaving me feedback on the last little bit of drivel. i appreciate it more than you know.

be well everyone... the dawg will try to get her shit together and come up with something new at some point here.

ANDI!!!



*Runs in and grabs you and hugs you tight* My favoritist bulldog! *sniff* Hey, sweetie!



Hey... don't worry if you can't come up with anything to write. It's totally understandable, k? I hope you're doing okay. OH... my new e-mail is willowtaralove@netzero.com"> willowtaralove@netzero.com I still have my yahoo address, too. Sorry I didn't get back to you sooner.



I hope you can find the words to write again soon. Your stuff is really beautiful, but then again... I'll understand why if you don't.



Keep in touch, okay?



Love you!

thanks for the votes of confidence you guys.

got something new for you... not as dark as i had thought it would end up. yay for that. this is on the W/T timeline during that nasty period between TR and Entropy. Sorry... i'm all angsty...





lay quietly girl

wrapped in the world you made

only moments and a little fear

given over to a hurting

wait the hours and the miles

immerse yourself in that one life

you have been building

be well

be honest

eat that aching

beneath your breastbone

swallow it

it's for the best



sleep simply sit upright

peer into pixels and faded light

listen to what words

i might gather forth

hand to you

in consolation

i have a great love for you

but less fierce

and now

with a little bit of judgment added in



within the rainy contemplation

is ease of handling

but when faced with making a decision

you were a failure

now a fight is necessary

a laying down of pride and envy

i want in some part

to make your life a part of me

but you took time to count the cost

and vainly place your limitaions

while i stepped back and gathered up

all the passion and fury i've got

and forged some bravery of it

knowing that the risk was worth it

i rode into battle hard

panting some

with open arms

prepared to take the final blow

without argument

if that was needed



i walked away

because i had to

because it

is needed

because you have to see you

have to find you

so



lay quietly my girl

figure out this world you've made

let go of this hurting and the fear

you wait the hours and i'll

walk these miles

the risk is still worth it

the dream is worth the dying

and maybe one day

when you finally know you

perhaps i can

as well



*twitches nervously and whimpers*

Wow... Andi...you amaze me. *shakes head* Wow...I really don't think I can form any words...not any that mean anything, at least. You are incredible. I loved the poem...it's probably one of my favorites that I've ever seen of yours. So...emotionally raw. *hugs* I miss you Andi...take care. Drop me a line sometime if you want or get a chance...



Love,



Aimster

howdy all. sorry for my absence, been crazy round these here parts. *reads last sentence and slaps the shit out of her inner cowgirl*

alright, i'm replying to feedback now and either tonight or tomorrow i've got something fresh from the oven for everyone and it ain't cookies.



Aimster - Thank you darlin'. One of your favorites huh? It was a bit raw, but pretty much everything was raw with me right then. I'm so glad you liked it. Sorry I haven't been around much lately. I'll email you this evening most likely. Take care of you dear.



SJ - Thank you. I'm glad you like my poetry, though I assure you... not all of it is so good.



alright everyone... something new within the next... oh say... 24 hours.

Hey Andi,



I just read your entire thread in one sitting and I don't think I have the words adequate enough to describe how much I enjoyed it. I am in awe of your writing, style and vunerable charm. Whether light or dark, naughty or otherwise, you hold nothing back and treat us to a firestorm of emotion and honesty.
