In the space between moments

0 posted 1999-10-03 10:09 PM


Light dapples through entangled clouds
Tumbling gently in a silver flow
I wander upon a cleansing breeze
A phantom within reality
Golden threads are fraying
Freedom floods upon feathered wings
My soul is drifting away
Melancholy sweetness blooms
Like spicy fragrance from a rose
Lost within the silence am I
Yet somehow unafraid
The deepest comfort found in me
The binds have now broken
That once held me here
Like crystal sands
I slip through your fingers
And gently float away
Alone is how I choose to be
Gracing the lightly glittered sky
For all of time
Remember me, my cherished love,
For I live in you.

Beautiful and yet so sad. There seems to be so much of that in here as of late. I'm going to need to get to a "happy" forum... hmmmm...."Oh, Ron??!!"
