Shadows drape in
Cascading anonymity
Cloaking heart fire’s flame

Whispers drift
Sighing the unspeakable
In shades of heather gray

Pearls glisten in precious shine
Pressed close to breast for guard
Less they fall amongst thieves

Dagger is clutched
In steadfast hand
Readied in case of need

All is consumed by
The swirling mist
Which shields desires most fragile

Hidden in disguise of nothingness
Lingering between dimensions
Veiled in the echoes of what could’ve been.

s.a.t.

Happiness isn't something that happens to you, it's created from within you.  Joy is a state of mind.

But Dixie, you didn't...

Well done, Susan!

Beautiful write
