With the next gasp of delicate air That we fight for with each passing breath We steal what remains of our share As we bring ourselves closer to death And the loves that we've wondered away Caress shadows of sound and of light As we ask what there is left to say In the vast open fields of the night In the shadows of summers now past And the sepia stained walls of our youth We hunt and we search to the last For the mis-shapen seeds of the truth |

you write of the mystery that inspires us to write and what you say causes much delight even though it comes from the dark cold nite |

Yes, this is really good. And I agree with Tara about the line: "And the sepia stained walls of our youth" Lotharingia "Dreams are life, reality, creation" Miguel de Unanumo |

Simply breathtaking. Encore!!! Life is not a spectator Sport! Dance like no one's watching. Love like it's never going to hurt. |

Imagine my surprise when I found that this piece had been dragged out and dusted off! It's a good thing too. Re-reading it has reminded me to not give up. I will not wonder away this love. Thank you all. Sing while you may -The Prophet Qa'sepel Your pain is for you alone, As it is, As it was, As it will be forever, Amen -The Prophet Qa'sepel |
