The crystal moonlight throws itself
Along the stone black path
To show the way to a place
Where one feels deserved

The endless pressure holding down
Every thought, created grief
Dampened by the piercing winds
That blow beneathe my heart

Wearing the crown of disappointment
With thorns that lace the top
That puncture deep into my wounds
That live as building scars

Represent what I can't be
Time invading what makes me
As the hourglass appears half full
It just blows over to start again

(big hugggsssssss) All it takes is to learn to fly and break like a bird against the wind to prevent that tempest from turning you again! (sigh) Let grace be your plumage, sweet friend, God Bless You, we all love you so much! You have such a beautiful heart, sweet friend, thank you for sharing!



May love and light always shine upon you!

Love,
Noah Eaton

Liked it as a whole, but this is what caught me

I as well noted the lines that Wranx and Sunshine pointed out. Powerful and deep.
Well done. TD
