Here, Now, Forever

..old ghosts play in the darkened fields,
among the steetlights,
silhouetted moonlight upon fallen rain,
in silent, fleeting etchings of undying immortal romance
angels drift upon the wind,
whispering truth of lost revelation,
the trees rapture in twilight song.
in the sea of How It Happened,
theres a hallway
gliding in all manner of conceivable entirety
nestled in a quiet peaceful location,
... pulsing sandgrain embers of love in the endless wild sky...
dust in the empty space between unseen
drifting among larger immediate action
yet the ghosts still hang in the fog,
old gray coats draped between the trees.
aimless.
we search for the lost revelation,
from person to person,
from age to age,
as long as memories last,
we will not forget the sacrifices we have made.
an angel peeks her face...
truth to truth
there is no single truth
as the truth of her beauty.
the promise in her face

ES,
Some interesting thoughts you provoke here. Nicely done.

(I think you want to correct this typo: among the steetlights,)

If tears could build a stairway and memories a lane, I'd walk right up to heaven and bring you home again.

yes, this is definitely under-rated superiority.  i'm not going to pull it apart, but like, it flows very well , (ambience, and use of language to convey meaning).  top quality!  and you say i'm better than YOU. whatever!
