In the shadows down and deep lay an omen I do keep for sins I live each day the ones I cover all the way. In the shadows laying there is my work I attempt to share the final words I long to speak of who I am in this world of need. In the shadows I slowly place another paper full of grace that is stained in ink and sweat the words I give in small increments. I lay them for all to see opening up the inner me let spill my madness to you all so I can shiver and finnally fall. For you see I am flesh and blood the prophet of many and of none I seek to find the lasting truth to find my heart amongst the ruins. In doing so I travel the mind fantastic places I have found the touch of hands, the kiss of wind to bring me back to start again. And in the shadows I have seen the real world, the one I keep within my heart as you walk by allowing me to share this small reprise. |

Once again I am in awe of your work. Thank God that you do choose to share yourself with us, for talent as yours truly graces and makes Passions just what it should be...a home for those who feel comfortable enough to share themselves with our family. Marina It is a blessing to have wings for words and passion in pen. |
