My hands and heart feel direction
With a lack of judgment to a sweet escape
What's reality?
A steady stream of struggle
Fish swimming in a river, purity, and love

Sharp rocks hurt,
But help the skin callous
Be in the school
Or die alone
A step becomes a movement

Wash me clean
Purify me with boiling water
I can finally comprehend this heat
As he bends to add fuel
I can't run

I'll never be perfect
Even after I'm dead my body will be unclean
Until every trace of skin, flesh, blood
Is pealed away in decay
To be clean

Chop it all down
Piece by piece
One at a time
And sometimes three
Never comprehend, but try

A trickle of music from a well,
Let it spill and rip through Hell.

WOW, you're really becoming stellar! With each new write, something just shines; well, radiates is a better word, Craig. You are taking your constructive critique comment to your own heart..."Honestly, just be honest."
Excellent, excellent, excellent!
Love and "As Always",

Purity

Wings bruised from turning away in such confined space...Not broken...still healable...still feathered with life, somewhere

Thank you Sinnful.  Whats your name again?

And thank you Purity.  Actually this one felt kinda opposite.  It felt like it didn't really match up, but I think you are right.
Thanks again friend.
