Forever More……Lizzy (the DeVine Challenge) My Dearest Lord Bryon, yes, it is me again, Liz when I caress the pages you held (I whisper) my heart flows from the ink of his I rush to write you a few words of my own but the silence is broken by a loud beating tone you leave me so breathless I almost feel faint to you my emotions and words can find no restraint I am a lady and should not speak in this course but when I read you breath is labored and forced you speak in tones so tender and sweet I rush to read you beginning to end complete I finish this letter and send it quickly to you Lord Bryon, Lord Byron I do adore you too Forever more, Lizzy "I have already paid for all my future sins." Sade...(King of Sorrow) |

Good for you...I once said that I should have loved a poet safely in his grave! I tried to reply earlier but was in a.o.HELL...and it bumped me, but wanted to say, sincerely, that I love your style, the way your words float down the page, seemingly in fragments, only to fit together so perfectly at the end. You grow in your words! Love it. |
