the loneliness of silent solemnity sounds its softened voice so hushed by scars of fate until the breaking of the guard abounds as laughter-less liquors recede and then abate to drink us in, to drink us down in mem’ries so quickly gone in mem’ries so quietly done in mem’ries so bathed in lucid tones and hues that color us with broad brushstrokes of fear of that which we recall, of that which we re-call to shame our hearts to silent solemnity closing our hearts, scarring our souls by mem’ries moribund resonance sounding against the breakwater of our souls |

So very good to read you again. The weave is very intentional on this write, and the hum of the heart within it resounds long after the final line. Touched me. |
