All I see
are the patterns
the words make
as they spill across
the page
in colours of
childhood
innocence

But you
drip
droplets of black or blue
lifeblood
emotion
passion

Sometimes my world
is cold
bland
washed out
as you paint
your life
in colours of
loving
vibrancy
giving
pleading with me
to see
to feel
to hear
to smell
the world and life

Your life penned
in full view
filled with
everything
I desire
yet all I see
are the patterns the words
make as they spill.

Here in the midst of my lonely abyss, a single joy I find...your presence in my mind.  Unknown

(sigh) This is sooooooo beautifully bittersweet, sweet friend, I believe we all have these feelings sometimes! (kiss on cheek) May these thoughts of black and blue be converted into thoughts of true joy forever, sweet friend, we all love you so much! You have such a beautiful heart, sweet Kethry, thank you for sharing!



May love and light alway sshine upon you!

Love,
Noah Eaton

Keth darling sister of my heart and holder of my souls sighs, oh my stars, sometimes there is magic written on these pages, sometimes there are sparkling jewels that flash in the light that twinkles here. Then there are those rare occasions when truths are revealed. Why is it that so often truth and beauty are revealed in your writing? I suppose it is that which makes it perfect. Sadness can still be beautiful, and this is and incredibly true

This is utterly utterly stunning, and why it hadn’t more replies I can’t say unless it’s because these pages move so fast. Never mind that is what I’m for to raise the fallen high once again


Love and warm stuff
As always

So beautifully written, Keth...absolutely perfect.
It was wonderful to hear your voice this afternoon.

I love this, Kethry... It touches me on so many different levels... including pure jealousy at your own descriptive powers. *S* Well done!!
