A time comes when we lose our core, after that we don’t care anymore. Everything is jaded, life seems very faded. In desperation, we grab at golden rings, only to find brass or gilt painted things. Finally we cry, this just won’t do in my soul, I’m not being true. I lay my head on my arms to cry, and that is when I heard a soft sigh. “You blame yourself for being alive, not even caring if you survive. I don’t ask you to give up love for me, only to fly, to ever be free. Love is infinite as the stars above, plenty of room for finding new love. Take me as your sun, but share the rest, time to leave that troubled nest. What we have, will ever be, all the way through eternity. But don’t give up life, for you are there, you know it is only for you that I care. Fly, my butterfly, spread your wings, for when you do, you make my heart sing.” |

Such words of love and understanding flow from you, Logan. I feel fortunate to hear them I took a walk around the world to ease my troubled mind. I left my body lying somewhere in the sands of time (3 Doors Down) |

There are many, many reasons why I like the sentiment of this piece, but the underlying reason is the current of hope that runs throughout... well done Sir... |

A time comes when we lose our core, after that we don’t care anymore. And coming back to life and caring can be so difficult. This is tender and beautiful and holds promise that the difficult is possible. |
