I, forced to swallow the most bitter pill,
Of the never was, and the never will
Shimmering veil of darkest cloth hides eyes
Of my muse, once more she comes to descry
She sees into the deepest depths of me
Because without her, I am incomplete
With a rush like wind through the fertile field
And sunlight cascading in my mind unsealed
My loosed thoughts pour forth haltingly at first
She stands now before me, moistened lips pursed

Far across the field, this ardent meadow
I hear a thousand trumpets start to blow
I allow myself within her shadow
Letting who I was, and never will, go

The rhyme and rhythm are as perfect as I've come to expect from your work... but it's what your words make me feel that makes this one of my favorites.

Letting go, accepting what can't be no matter how much it's wanted... to show the pain but move forward with grace... this is incredibly beautiful!!

"Because without her, I am incomplete"

And without you, this forum would be, too. *S*
