She thinks aloud with classical purity,
Walks with her soul in hand…
Loves with inconveniently tender conscience,
Subsides faith at forced touch of a man…

Courage, chaos, substitution for abuse,
She treads the precipice thin of Fate…
Wilted upon imperious summons,
Calloused hands have taught her to Hate…

Shifted, Unseen,
Like a grasp from a dream-
Upon Waking…

May you find your peace soon…

Open arms can be the most fragile in the world...

(big hugggsssssss) This too saddens me so much to see so many women taken advantage of and abused this way, sweet friend, my heart goes out to her and so many others and I wish peace to come her way! (sigh) This is sad but powerful, sweet friend, we all love you so much! You have such a beautiful heart, sweet Tanya, thank you for sharing!



May love and light always shine upon you!

Love,
Noah Eaton

The title grabbed me...I could use a dose of that myself!  I like this style on you, my sister. This is a wonderful expression of the sweetness of your soul. Hugs, you.

Peace will be found when direction like this is given.

Thank you.

there is strength in these words....wonderful writing.  *s*

Like a red brick,
in a white wall
somebodies brush
forgot to paint...
lonely....(as sung by Tracy Lawrence..)
