Soveriegn of Life, Soveriegn of Self- ME

I am the greasy fingerprint of something less than God,
the one ruined feather fallen from an Angel's wing.
I wallow in my madness since sadness is too small.
I am but the empty echo of a poet's swollen heart.
Feed me sugar and wine to drown the sweetness of my blood,
for sorry never felt so sure as the day I first opened my eyes.
I need no mirror to see myself.
It is reflected in all human eyes- friend and stranger alike.
'...distance is necessary...
...I will hurt you...
...you will hurt me...'
We are too beautiful in different ways to be too close for too long.
Her eccentricities stem from her simplicity.
You must forgive her, for she really believes it true.
'It is real if we can touch it; should it not be truth if we believe it so?'
There are so many worlds in the realm of our possibility;
the weight of it all is so frighteningly overwhelming and yet so very welcoming.
It is an odd sensation, the realization, and consideration of such things.
What am I to do with this knowledge?
Push it aside? Grow with it? Disbelieve it? Or pile faith upon it?
I am only the soft resonance of something greater before me;
nothing but a memory of ancient spells and tongues.
Oh, my soveriegn~ source of all my sorrow, my silence...
How I wish I could forgive you.
I have long ago forsaken you...
One day, we will leave the prison of the flesh.
Our souls enlightened, shall sail without a ship.
We do not need the vessel, the body.
It is only a temporary cage that carries all we really are
back to what we truly shall be
~ONE~

(sigh) This is sooooooo powerfully thought-provoking indeed, sweet friend, the substance we are is indeed temporary, but we also have the power to forgive and feel for always and that is the benefit always as we walk this purgatory with Him as our guidance! (kiss on cheek) This is absolutely wonderful, sweet friend, I love it, we all love you so much! You have such a beautiful heart, sweet Christine, thank you for sharing!



May love and light always shine upon you!

Love,
Noah Eaton

only you know the answer to that question. . . this is a start. . .

well written, makes one think, yes. . .and look inside. . . powerful. . .
