It's what you ALL want
  yet as you see seek unfortunately
     we are all much much too scared
       to simply step up from the chair

Let alone come close enough
  to taste the scent intimate
    actually touch a hand hold it
      fear of piercing heart restrains

Oh the band discouraged yet never
  releasing the hold on the love and hope
    contained in every PausePulse plays on and
      on entreating every sound to break down walls

Surrounding each who claims to want Love and to be
  so dance one inch closer music wordless sings lead
    songs rending truths die of whithered heart dry
      or let the blood flow fall into every unknown

Your heart will end you whichever yet MusicMagic
  the sweat of passion pours from every horn
    get out on the floor high dive swan dive how
       many know an air so rare lungs burst to taste

An air so rare so sweet the body bends in ecstacy
  trying to weep bending falling sidewards floating
    dreams becoming THE ONLY REALITY music comes
     suddenly as all things UNSEEN only crying sweet

While you rejoice in the bleeding of that pierced
   heart while even in your dreams the musicians
     smile exhaustedly as they play in a rapture
       pure passion while you find that HeartsBlood

Is the SweetestGivingTakingLossGainYouEverKnew
  steals your breath away unspeaking words fail
    as there is no pause while the band plays on
     the deadly dance no person can be alive without

It's been awhile.  We've missed your thoughts, and ponderings.  Now, please...stay...and play the heartstrings of the poets, for you do it so well!

Acrostic headed thy way

Where indeed
  Hoping no such place exists
    Ye find all in everything together tossed

Not I guess twould make a difference
  Only who really wants the refuse pile
    Toiling midst a million years of Why Not


IT was very thoughtful of you to plant this on my post.  Come to think of it, under some of the gloom, there was some light: some people do go through landfills and refuse piles to find lost treasures!  I liked your acrostic!
                 Thanks, Sadelite

Beauty of the world which is soon to perish has two edges, one of laughter and one of anguish, cutting the heart asunder.

It is true that dying is easy; it is living that is hard.
