Sitting here, alone, in darkness,
I can hide the tears in my eyes.
Lost within this world of starkness,
It's but my sanity that cries.
In this day of destitution,
I offer you no alibis.
For there is no restitution,
Where the silence never lies.

You flew me past heaven, above,
To a white castle in the sky.
Dancing in the very eyes of love,
In seas of tranquility on high.
We shared the stare of forever,
A gentle kiss, a breathless sigh.
But two souls none could dissever
Split apart on one wordless lie.

So now I watch you walk away,
Squeezing pain as if it's your prize.
There's really not much one can say,
While watching their dreams crystalize.
May the solace you seek find you
A love you've yet to realize.
May the darkness never remind you -
Where the silence never lies.

------------------
Michael Anderson

And after-drunkeness of soul
Succeeds the glory of the bowl -
An idle longing night and day
To dream my very life away

Oh Michael, I find myself once again trying to give answers where I have none. But as before I offer the one thing I am sure that I can... Friendship.

Ah...this is painfully beautiful...it takes my breath away....no silence here babe....of course, you know that already...I love you. Isn't it great that 2 people can talk about their ups and downs and sort through things together ? That's what a real relationship is all about....Thank you. Who ever said we were perfect? We are human just like every other couple.....I love you babe. Missing you already....glad we have eachother.

You said it best in your own verse...May the solace you seek find you

Love is an attempt at penetrating another being,But it can only succeed if the surrender is mutual.

There's not much one can say...

I'm struck dumb.

I can't escape this, emptiness
