Sometimes the days seem neverending Sometimes its a sweet surprise Others I would pay the Sun to rise.... To come up already, legs unsteady I weep for it to end or maybe begin Sometimes months seem so fast when did it sweep me in its grasp if time is truly illusion, as they say, Why does it seem like yesterday is achingly gone and far away.The crutch of death has come to call reminding me, (I feel so small) Of important matters as it seems, while your poor heart shatters The sadness screams So brave, so solid, standing tall while her lifelong love's body (he looked so small) was carried out and put to rest He always did love her the best. And so upon reflection, My five year marriage, (it seems so small) needs some kind of ressurection. Our backs against the wall. The bones are there, beneath the excuses. Love is still there. Still strong, and though I want to run I need to see there is no one there is no one person there is not one person, besides me (I am so small) that can build the forts I dream of that can survive from that height of fall But too much reaching feels so good at times (and not usually when it should) But he can build it with me (a goal in sight, sharing now seems rather right.) So I offer renewed hope a sparkling smile amidst lengths of rope to hang ourselves, when falling down? or lariats lowering us to the ground? IP: Logged |

I need this at the top to remind me to stop writing the other kind... or to stop wanting to write the other kind. IP: Logged |

pix - this brought a tear to me when I read it again I actually visualised a fairy / pixie full of love, hurt by the implications of cruelty in the world. (It was just my visual image since I have a deep affinity with fairy folk) How pure spirits are saddened by the hurt they see but can't mend, and affected by the hurt they feel, trying to mend. It's how we define art that people share with us I guess that is beautiful too ------------------ "When the power of love overcomes the love of power, the world will know peace."

This is the part that gets me:Sometimes months seem so fast when did it sweep me in its grasp if time is truly illusion, as they say, Why does it seem like yesterday is achingly gone and far away. IP: Logged |
