and now forsaken, the word for heart, stills at my throat in braided gold links, tomorrow is nothing but a tremor in my voice, the minuets ache of loss as i turn soft steps back into night, laying the dark lilies of sorrow along the path, my eyes, annealed with tears, the acoustics of red, recall the tenderness of your hands combing the dark weeds of my hair, and sleeping in the curve of your body, I can still conjure the sighs of midnight content, but sadly, cannot say the words, love, now a handful of rocks tossed against a window, the wingbeat of summer, and your hands still, not a shiver, but a trespass through the deep drough as I dream, and part from part, the soul falls in twain, and I am stripped bare, my heart heaves up curses, coughing sand in the parched heat of sunlight, and if the heart must break, then let it break open and spill out hot, over the cradle of dreams we have cast upon our lyric waters, death, stay your phantoms another hour, and in one last glimpse, I close my eyes against the everlasting light, and begin the descent into the days' familiar black-out.  ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ ...from A Passage through Oz....  |

tomorrow is nothing but a tremor in my voice, the minuets ache of loss as i turn soft steps back into night, laying the dark lilies of sorrow along the path, You make my throat close with emotion... no words can escape... but still I whisper... a soft wow. *S* Superb work! |

Most times when I read you I read the female half of Cpat... was that your intention?  but I'm sure you'll thank me for such a compliment. either way the writing is as it always has been...above and beyond. "too bad ignorance isn't painful" |

I can still conjure the sighs of midnight content, but sadly, cannot say the words, love, now a handful of rocks tossed against a window, the wingbeat of summer, This is beautiful. Achingly sad. |

the female half of me?? 1. I can't hold a candle to Belle's talent with words and phrasing 2. ** looks down ** nope, not the bottom half.. 3. ** looks in the mirror ** nope..I'd be one ugly female... belle... ma;am.. the words are always a joy to read.. the talent as I have said, something to envy, and I have from time to time envied the skill ... please don't take ofense to being compared to the female half of me.... I'm sure they mean it as a compliment... not a way to poke at you with a stick... |
