standing on a shadow's lace

Shell


you are in my dreams
an imprint on the very soul
not a day goes painfully by
that you are not aching in it
conversations we didn’t have
ring echoes in my heart
I am missing them now
oceans of tears splash shore
yesterday waves of nothing to it
with no real risk or chanced empty
shell left on a winters beach
heart shines thinly pink
and no life left at all

“all romantics meet the same fate”…Joni Mitchell

Sometimes all that is possible....breathe, sleep or seem to, eat when you're supposed to eat, eventually be able to smile when you're supposed to smile....and some day, maybe, partially at least, live again.
