Her spirit lost Within a cloud of hesitation Her fears of flying free Are her own damnation. A lullaby begins to drift A forgotten melody Sound quietly caressing Like a liquid reverie. She begins to listen As the music flows The silken touch of memory Tenderly begins to grow. Notes swell within the air Rising in intensity A symphony of floating souls So rich and velvety. A crescendo of desire Rips the night apart From the bleeding stars Her healing now starts. Tears of truth do cling Offering their tale She listens with her heart And knows she will prevail. So with her spirit's grace She lets the wind arrive And gently carry away A love that long ago died. *Krista Knutson* ~*Like a lion, without fear of the howling pack, Like a gust of wind, ne'er trapped in a snare, Like a lotus blossom, ne'er sprinkled by water, Let me, like a unicorn, in solitude roam.*~ Hymn Of Buddha |

Thank you all. *Krista Knutson* ~*Like a lion, without fear of the howling pack, Like a gust of wind, ne'er trapped in a snare, Like a lotus blossom, ne'er sprinkled by water, Let me, like a unicorn, in solitude roam.*~ Hymn Of Buddha |

Krista.....I am glad that you can again hear the songs that echo in your heart again. And one day that love will blossom so strong and so loud. Nothing will ever end Wonderful I don't buy temporary insanity as they murder defense. Because people kill people. That's and animal instinct. I think breaking into someone's home and ironing all their clothes is temporary insanity. |
