Painted here
As if tattooed by your touch
Lie the lines you wrote on my skin
In a language older than Babylon or Mur
incanted with some magic older still
That they change color as well as shape with each glance
Leaving no way to decipher the meaning
That ever changes with each shift of the time
You trapped here in cunning
To drive mad the mind
Perhaps opening the heart

Does no one see these tomes written
In ink that bleeds your essence with slow spread
Until it drips from pages of us to stain
The deeper lie of thought
The fathomless depths of if

Painted here
For all to read meaning into as they
With wise eyes or old hearts read
What I can’t

Oh my....this is deep...this is depth defined...written on soul parchment..aged with the slow ache of intense need.
I honestly dont have the words to tell you how that verse effects me.
Keeping this one for future stirrings.
Capt...thy muse is divine.

I feel the intensity in this, Ron...it ticks like explosive feeling, just waiting for someone to push the button.

BRAVO!!! Yes, I know this kind of feeling so very much too, sweet friend, there is so much that is recorded within history that seems so inconceivable to decipher and under rug swept, and only in discovering the lie or truth of it all can we understand the gist of it! (big huggssssss) This is excellent, sweet friend, we all love you so much! You have such a beautiful heart, sweet Ron, thank you for sharing!



May love and light always shine upon you!

Love,
Noah Eaton

Right before your eyes...know exactly what you mean.  Damn, you're on a roll.
