Dead to yourself and your brilliant words what kind of world do you inhabit? arrogantly craven? maliciously darkened? or merely a mind with a writer’s curse merely a mind with a person’s hurt so alone you taste and reach without textured life without a mirror to reflect another soul close enough to touch healing is a mad dream too far for a maddened Dreamer yet felicity calls and peace could sing her requiem if you but let it go... let it all just flee ah, you say, if only it were that easy if only it held the ease of breathing words... (For you, dark one. Your friend K) |

I truly wish it were that easy for me my friend, but 'tis not. Letting go of some things is very easy, other things cannot be released. Learning the difference and the things in between is the fun part. "Peace" is such an odd word, odder still when it is applied to a headstone, yet "peace" is all I seek. I think that my healing would stymie Mercury and his Caduceus were they to make the attempt. Thank you much for thinking enough of me to write verse for me dear friend. Now and forever, my heart hears ~one voice~. DreamEvil© ------------------------------------------------------- "Either kill me or take me as I am, because I'll be damned if I ever change..."
