Bleak The chill has returned, hopelessness setting in, as I sit and feel the ache inside my chest competing for every breath. Must be me, warring within, not wishing to surrender to this chapter in my life. How can it be, how much can one bear? Aren't the measure of one's deeds worthy of some relief? Solutions, time, why must I sustain this weight, such heaviness burdening my soul, seizing and detaining me from a life, one I once awakened to, stretching my arms, opening to its warmth of wonder. I maintain my sanity, but for how long? How much longer can life be choked out of me before I weaken and these feelings can no longer reach my fingertips and touch you. How much time before these lips can no longer whisper, or kiss you, as they had once before? How fitting my name, as naked now, my thoughts have become, unadorned am I, as the Winter chill has returned and taken away my warmth.

 (big hugggsssssss) This is so very sad but wonderfully expressed, sweet friend, I hope now the winters chill has died away and now the beautry of springs sunshine flourishes in your heart is everything is anything but bleak now! (kiss on cheek) I think we can all relate to these feelings of desolation sometimes, sweet friend, this is powerful, we all love you so much! You have such a beautiful heart, sweet Maureen, thank you for sharing! May love and light always shine upon you! Love, Noah Eaton |
