There was a day scheduled to be lived; our feet would run against wind, shipping us off to each untouched sky, as lips tasted new food. I held your hand before, lightly to caress our souls; a kiss barely there, spills upon my cheeks, as salty memories slide from my eyes. If 30 candles lit the hollow of your stare, could I follow them back to our comfort? The faint spirit that clings to me, speaks nonsense in vivid dreams; and searching never brings me closer. I asked, you said yes, it was not long before the switch flipped; your heart became a paperweight holding your desires with strings. In puppet fashion, you disappeared. |

Oh WOW Page, I so enjoyed this. There is so much wrapped up in this and I love the way you worded it, also especially the ending. Wonderful impact, a most enjoyable read. And so nice to be able to put a face with the words. Nicely done lady...nicely done indeed. |

"If 30 candles lit the hollow of your stare, could I follow them back to our comfort?" and how we seek to return to the place and time of love it hurts Monklet and you speak it well |
