Listen to silence
within solitary tear
sorrow from the past
shaped upon shattered deep blue
roots convey seeds of freedom

"roots convey seeds of freedom"

made me cry with that, y'did.

That sums up the whole of my (once) ongoing argument with him. Hugs you...thanks for this! (and perhaps someday, he and I will resume the discussion.)
