Shakespeare also used the term "die" to reflect self changing so that the new could enter (he often related it to sex, neatly enough.) <br /><br />I think most poems contain metaphors, I would never worry that this poem is a death wish for you! :) You have too much life and passion for that.Phoenixhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07477498671080132176noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2691521874215843582.post-36561818561698010082012-04-20T18:55:07.567-07:002012-04-20T18:55:07.567-07:00I feel like there are times we know and then somet...I feel like there are times we know and then sometimes when we have to let go ~ I found myself holding too tightly to one version of my direction and not being able to move forward at all. I get the sneaking suspicion that letting the one idea of 'how I think it's supposed to be' dissolve, will help me see another version I've been overlooking for quite some time.akka b.https://www.blogger.com/profile/12882674302297915491noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2691521874215843582.post-75552323427925316282012-04-19T11:01:08.357-07:002012-04-19T11:01:08.357-07:00This one hurts me true.

(As much as I enjoy 'walking the edge' I would never wish to actually physically die in a thunderstorm, until I'm 93 that is - then indeed I WOULD like to physically die in a thunderstorm. WOW!
