Thickened skins
covering mass of seething mouths
that gape
full of remorse
for what they havent yet maimed
regretting those they have
aimlessly sliding upon wind
undeservedly carried with speed stolen
from others left behind
gathering dust
their camouflage worn thin
barely concealing
revealing ugly twists
of cold soul
no amount of warmth could heal.

learning each day, for you and i, our paths have met, i've already learnt that you are love.

(big hugggssssss) Oh Gemma, it is so sad but true, sweet friend, some just don't get satisfied easily and sadly it can bring such injustice to the heart and creates avarice or parsimonious behavior! (sad sigh) This is powerful, sweet friend, I just love your poetry, we all love you so much! You have such a beautiful heart, sweet Gemma, thank you for sharing!



May love and light always shine upon you!

Love,
Noah Eaton
