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.That is so sad and it really got to me. Pixie you are the master! IP: Logged |

Pix, its very musical(i am not understating ur feelings)
i would love to hear it as a song 
This part made me think.
-----------------------
Others I would pay the Sun to rise....
To come up already, legs unsteady
I weep for it to end
or maybe begin

Oh! Thanks for all your comments.. I bumped it because it has been almost a year since my grandfather passed.
He was holding his wife of sixty years' hand, in the house they lived in, their entire marriage.
I just had my sixth wedding anniversary, and I was thinking of this poem again. I wanted to reread it, and so I bumped it rather than searching for it again.
I figured the message is something I need to reread and really feel.... IP: Logged |

 {{{Pix}}} I'm not sure why, but as I was thinking about LL last week, over last weekend of the 4th my first posts crossed my mind as 'Special'. I remembered you mentioning your grandfather around that time also. We are both funny in the head then after all, since saw this bumped  ------------------

That IS cool!I am not self confident enough to expose myself to criticism. I am afraid, and I will roll into a ball and die, or fight anyone who is a naysayer.
Either or... right now, I have no perspective.
But thank you.
I had the urge and the incentive to put together a business, and I worked hard for two weeks, compiling paintings, making new things.. but I suddenly lost it. I suddenly lost all my will, my self confidence, my drive. I literally cried everyday.
Trainwreck.
I was saying "support or not, I will do this!"
and then the lack won out for now.
Most likely I will get to it again, but whether I will finish or not remains to be seen.
I feel unfinished.
I feel raw... though I am at peace with it this week. I have cried too much already.
So tonight I will rage with drink.  I had a show two weekends ago. It was good, but still unfulfilling. I woke that day with sadness and was elated on stage, then the next morning sadness again. IP: Logged |

Oh my - I know exactly what you mean with the whole business thing! It's been so difficult beginning to set something up that I want to do ~ always comes down to money  Support too. I feel my dad doesn't think it's feasable and trying to prove that it is, such an uphill task!Well I'm heading in the right direction and moving in the right circles, just have to build up my momentum everytime I get stopped! Shall persist though quote:
I feel raw... though I am at peace with it this week.
- I love the way you wrote that whole thing up there by the way. I love unintentional prose ~ poetry in motion that comes with emotion Strange but I like that feeling of peace after turmoil ~ you know when your mind reflects on the whirlwind and you feel you learnt a little bit more about yourself? I feel unfinished also in some respects. I understand ~ as much as I can through our words ~ how you're feeling. I feel for you in the up and down stages you're going through right now However! I know you're a finely tuned hotbed of artisitc expression and talent and one way or another you'll get that out. I see no way that you won't, you have to much presence and I love seeing it
Have a roaring night this evening beautiful ~ have one for me *clink* Cheers!

Beautiful, heartwrenchingly beautiful.My Venus in Scorpio wouldnt love it any other way. Listening to you, how can I deny -
how dare I deny -
my Scorpio roots?! You wouldnt fake it if you could. Thank you pixel pixie. Hang in there,
you are the kitten on my cross. Every time, every day you rise again,
just knowing where you've been,
through all those dark nights of the soul,
pixie, you are the phoenix,
you come back and make light of the darkness. bless your fractured heart,
steve
