moonlight shines like a beacon through my window filling every dark corner with its presence as the night flees from the very edges as the room is washed in illuminating paint I felt darkness once deep inside in corridor long forgotten even though I moved there was no sound the sparkle had long since dulled and faded this room boarded up so no light might pierce the emptiness which by now had grown thick so it was now evident by all senses I wont say though that my world had ended life had gone on I had purpose I was once again me I could once again see the soul inside from dim lit mirror I had moved on embraced meaning but inspite of it all part of me ached for more I had seen bad choices and broken promises play out like some tear jerker frame by frame to its predictable emotional end I had cursed the fairy tale that proclaims "happy ever after" bitterness ate at the same rate loneliness taunted till I was not more then numb I had moved on shoved it all in some forgotten part the wonder the awe the pain love nailed the doors and windows shut so it all would remain in the past forgotten so the pain would dull to but a memory I wanted to love be loved but it all seemed foriegn to me every moment I would get close I would run back to shadow Then there was you out of a old camera roll of memories you came to mind a simpler happier time that for some reason my mind had chose to capture and store imprint on every part of me Remembering drove me to find you to fill the puzzle of why many years had not faded you from memory I remember the many months at church denying feeling willing to live with no more so at least you would be there and not just in memories I remember the first time I really looked into your eyes ryan was playing on a snow pile heritage square as I looked into your eyes I felt you looking back into me with peace a electric spark hit a nerve I felt myself really smile for the the first time in a long time Something amazing like out of a fairytale everymoment with you, bliss and without you the moments are an eternity I couldn't wait to see you look in your eyes hear your voice feel your kiss I don't when it happened the boards are flying off the door coming open as the light from your pretty eyes fills my dark forgotten room Its all coming out confused flooding all at once sometimes jumbled, silly I love you you look in my eyes night scatters my soul illuminated and every dark part of me runs fleeing from the very edges Darksage August 18th 2010 |

This was intense and jam packed with emotions. It is heartbreakingly beautiful the way you wrote it, the feelings are all there and felt deeply. Great to have you here among us again~ |

This a wonderful emotional write. The feelings pull the reader right on to the page. " Its all coming out confused flooding all at once sometimes jumbled, silly I love you" Well done! Eric |
