Passing through, onward wearing seas under folds that gloves warming rain only you, gone my passing breeze steady holds a love's dying pain Petrified, tossed beyond thy hand lay to sleep the rest that's undone left aside, lost, don't understand thoughts to keep the darkness of one In sorrow love has lost its way the helpless wills another's place Tomorrow lives another day emptiness fills the chambers space Once alone the soul and heart meet crushed to bone, their blood dries complete |

Craig, this one is so sad, but as always, so well written. You have an amazing way of pouring the emotions out onto the page, and making the reader feel the angst. |

RP - thanks for the request, anytime you feel the urge just drop me a line and I will get back to you ASAP. And thanks for the comments, I do try my best. Kacy - I believe poetry is the emotion of words, in sadness or cheer, the flow begins right here. Thanks for commenting. |

I've been sitting here for hours with pen in hand and finding nothing to say what I'm feeling. Now I do not have to. You have written it. In sorrow love has lost its way the helpless wills another's place Tomorrow lives another day emptiness fills the chambers space The entire piece is perfection, but I do like those lines especially.  |

My, I did not expect such warm comments. All of you have shined a light for this soul to follow. Anyone who may wish to do a Duet, please contact me by mail with a line or two and what you would like your words to share. I would be happy to work with any of you. LC - Truth and words help protect the heart. Thanks for all the smiles. *s M - One can lend a hand better than holding onto it. *s K - A magical compliment I hope I can live up to. TY *s V - Thank you, happy to hear you enjoyed. *s SS/SP - I appreciate both comments, TY. *s N - My heart needs a rest, perhaps in time good friend. *s Lets try a Duet soon. B - You picked my favorite line, sometimes the simple words mean the most. *s C - The thoughts of darkness have been felt by all, but darkness does help one's light stand out. *s K - Your hugs always help. *s Iq - Happy to meet you, would love to share both words and feelings on this subject. Please share your inner glow. S - Hello Sue!! I find myself inspired by your work and comments. *s |
