Always, Never Was

The cotton like softness drifting towards clear
swirling it's dances for eyes watching near

A morning all whitened, pured for my thoughts
another day's wakening, the heavens have wrought

Deeper, and hurting, each knife twisted moan
tired and dragging, hard heartened like stone

Fear that one day, shall my epitaph read
"Lies here, alone, yet never was freed."

Reading of words here, insane some have said
in jest, we're assured, yet sometimes it's read

More than it's meaning, but that's what it's for
to interpret for each, for minds to explore

To "feel", to "think" to "commiserate" sometimes
but today I am drifting in thought lost in find

Wouldn't it be wonderful to drift soft in air
like those snowflakes of cotton that land gently there

With warm sunshine resting upon cold of white
To then melt into oblivion, freed, worryless this night.

Yes, everyone should feel the kind of freedom you described here, Wynter, beautiful.

**********************************************
Lots of good lines in this one, but I keep coming back to these.  That's a pretty scary thought.  I suppose in a way we are never really free of people who once walked beside us.  I've been in a mood swing week myself, so maybe feel this a bit more than usual. Hope you feel better soon.
