Just Another Weed Sometimes, it's the rain, in its infinite beauty that can also kill the softness, drown the daisies and make you feel the pain of the thorns, which were never sliced off before your crimson could soak into the green of the stem and run, along your soul... when in the rain, if you find you no longer carry the umbrella of love.. and the shelter of their heart is no longer willing to allow you refuge from the spine numbing pain of admission as it slices through an ebon sky, with falling tears that burn your eyes ... as they engrave one more line around the corners of your mouth just remember that sometimes... a rose is simply just ....another weed and though you sit in this garden of despair and scream into the night "will I always be alone" and the soil starts to rise around your knees, your fingers dig and dig until .. bleeding tips of agony claw at the uncertain edge, while rocks and sand fall down around your crumpled soul... there will always be ... green and, you will rise "...I am a river in winter,quiet in the eyes of most butdeep,swift and full of life to one, lucky enough to fall through the ice." |

Sighhh, in all it's sadness and hope, I will read this over and over again. Into my library it goes. I'll be back! Maree I may know the word but not say it I may know the truth but not face it I may hear a sound a whisper sacred and profound but turn my head indifferent.

I get so tired of trying to hide behind the words that this time, I just bled all over the page... Thank you all for the comments, they have touched my heart more than you know. Always, Snow |
