That touched my soul and he said...

"your soul is your body and life itself
so sure I could not have
surely..."

I don't feel a thing unless we speak in patterns that can keep my mind on even waves.
And riddles which activate the imagination, the kettle is bursting to tell some truth beneathe the fog and shrill scream.
And I still sit, stalk still with hope on my fingers, along with dried sugar.
Quite a fuss broke out at tea time and we all left a little sweeter then we arrived, at least on the outside
..while the insides of both cup and chest grew bitter.  

I hope you can tell by the way I hang my coat that I won't be staying long, don't bother lending the fire another log.
You wear brown shoes, and path and consquence know you no different because of it.
I don't blame you a single thing, I don't owe you a letter or even a glance but I plan to give you both.

Prolonged and lonely winter is surely coming.
The climax, the finial ends will be tied into unbreakable knots.
And what then....will we live with our ties or forever look for knives sharp enough to cut them off.

Yes

It sounds like an understatement

But it is not
