Entangled
in a thornbush
of words
that pierce
the skin
bleeding trust
in slow drip
upon once
hallowed ground

Ah, so well I do know this, Aenimal, and once the bleeding starts it's so hard to stop....

A true lesson in this one.

Yes, Raph...once I start the way I probably
need to, the bleeding may never stop.

Raffaele, these are very touching words. Your bleeding makes the ground even more sacred, dear one.
It is an act of healing.
E' triste però!
Abbracci, Margherita

You kick poetic butt with this simple yet hauntingly beautiful purge.  I like the theme/metaphor you use, it works well.  GAWD I relate, but, then again, I'm sure you already knew that

Keep on writing!

venting helps.....consols the heart....

Through the darkness
I can see your light
And you will always shine
And I can feel your heart in mine

I will remember you
