Oh my love, what have I done to cast you away? Have I not told you how you are loved? Have I not said to infinity those thoughts I have? Have I lost you, cast you from my soul? Each waking thought is of you. Each emotion is for only you. Each breathe I breath is because of you. You are me. I feel the empty hollowness in my heart. Space occupied by one so dear as you. I try to fill this void, I cannot find you. I know not where you are. What must a mortal man of many emotions do? Can I not conceive the right to the wrong? Am I lost in my own loss too deep to feel. Will I ever know what it is you need? Your arms around me chill my skin with pleasure. My inner soul warms to a gentle touch. I take each breath of fragrance deep. Savoring the sense that invades me, entrances me. My mornings awaken to tears. My nights keep me staring at a lifeless moon. My heart slowly guides my blood. Love flows through endless miles of red. Crumbs of love’s bread are all I partake as I try to untie a knot so deep. Water flows over closed lips as I scream silently within my mind. I await you, you are my life, my twin of love. Do you not hear my cries, feel my pain? |

 (big hugggsssssss) Oh Magnus, I hope this isn't really a though that relates to you as of right now, for I believe we all have these times, like I have had sometimes. (sad sigh) This is sad but very beautiful thoughts, sweet friend! You have such a beautiful heart, sweet Magbus, thank you for sharing! May love and light always shine upon you! Love, Noah Eaton |

And I get the greatest personal satisfaction when I know that I have moved someone by the words that I write. Thank you. |
