No. It's not a simple life.
There is no parity.
There is no rule, no measured speak--
and I've no clarity.
Everything of hurt, entwines,
each raw nerve touches another.
Every hurt is amplified
as pride of cry is smothered.
All my pain and teeth in clench,
every restless moment spent.
Every footstep toward the door
and every footfall back for more...


Oh damn my life! Be it undone.
I rock myself to sleep--
pounding head against the wall
to prove I can still weep.


I have to let it go, I know.
I must let this be.
Brave a trail of tears again -
to journey on my blistered feet.
Yet angels' choir of memory,
in harmony of seraphim,
bewitchment of a blasphemy
oh may I dream? please...
     dream of him?

This is absolutely excellent.  You know, no matter how well things go sometimes it really is true, without dark, there would be no light.

My perception of truth will somehow never quite be the same..and so I write.

Keep writing until you write him right out of your heart. Hugs and peaceful prayer chants are on the way.

(sigh) I can feel such sorrow in these words, sweet friend, pace through the trail of tears, sweet friend, and write down how you feel, for we are always here for you, and hold all your dreams close, for joy and relief will come your way very soon! (kiss on cheek) So sad but beautiful, sweet friend, we all love you so very much! You have such a beautiful heart, sweet Karen, thank you for sharing!



May love and light always shine upon you!

Love,
Noah Eaton
