Morning breaks a lonely heart but not the part that mourns and so it stands eternally a monument to pain. Not of stone - no, no, no, but like a locket round the neck to not ere drift apart from the main attraction. But the main attraction broken now no longer stands on centre stage and holds the gaze of one who loves unblinking and steadfast. Broken hearts and mourning parts so near yet far apart seek but never find the element that binds. But when it’s time at last, at last, for the final bow perhaps there’ll be a clap and cheer for the drama of a life that grants us all the breath of life until the curtain drops. Perhaps, perhaps!

Sometimes it does seem that heartache and sadness is all we ever get out of life, Helen. Even when love comes our way it is usually accompanied with drama we never thought it would have. ~*~ If they give you lined paper, write sideways. ~*~ |

The element that binds, well, that's quite the way to describe it Helen. This is good writing using those morning breaks comparisons. Hey, ya just never know, that element might be just around the corner. Take Care Eric true love never looks after it's own interests |

Thanks, Startime and Eric. Your replies brought tears to my eyes and, Startime, aren't rare things locked away in glass cabinets to be admired from a distance and not touched? |
