    hiya average girl!!!!
    never tire of reading yr latest poems mich, always eager to see yr newest work (wen i get the chance!!) you have been spoiling everyone on here lately with yr prolific creativity.
    This poem, using yr skill of fully conveying a precise emotion state carrys yr exact impassioned pleas with accomplished clarity. the dead of night plays tricks with restless hearts, and the 3.am setting, along with the title, sets a mood of quiet lonliness. `no solace` (...solace, i like that word, gonna use it again!) no rest from the torment until you are finaly made whole again by being in the presence of your baby, your love. `longing` `reaching` comes across to me as an outstretched glasping heart, trying to stretch its sinews for the merest of contacts for `solace!` and comfort.
    ` wishing time away` ,`yearn for the time` reflects a disquietning hungry feeling gnawing away at yr peace of mind, distorting and fuzzing anything that isnt relevant to you and your soulmate. i find some consolation babe knowing that im not the only one going through this emotional turmoil.
    Listening to old loves songs, re-discovering favourite tunes which hav now taken on new meaning as each and every line now appears relevant to you and your life. find myself doing that a lot lately, smiling and shaking my head when a particular lyric seems to be pointing its finger at me, taunting me.
    `when you get of that airplane....kiss and a smile` hey, what about the `old english custom` we talked about! oh i forgot, you dont do that do you!!! My most favourite line of this poem, of any of your poems, has to be `ill be with you, in your heart, all the while.` awwww and you say i always know the right things to say. thank you michelle for just being you. really hope* for the sake of my sanity and yours that dreams do come true!!! (*just another excuse to look at THAT picture!!!hehe) 5/5 xxx
