~*No Matter*~ scream! cry! but why bother to feel the pain that comes with lack of voice... of being heard? why bother... when sounds echo off battered walls of an empty heart? why... when pain is constant- when hearts bleed with each breath and eyes cry with every blink? who eases breath? who catches tears? who hears the lonely cries of a lost soul in search of home? any home... no one... no one hears... no one sees... no one cares ears... deafened to all except for one and one is all they hear... all else is silenced eyes... blinded to all except for him and he is all they see... all else is blurred breath... no need for this he breathes and all is well... he breathes... no others exist no friends... who once held trembling hands who listened when voice of sadness cried who cared... no matter what... no matter when no matter... no matter... for he is all that matters anymore ~vlraynes "...until you have read the verse on his heart, |

This had an ache in it that went right to the core of my being. No one should be that alone. The one saving grace is the faith to turn that that "one", and hand over feelings of unworthyness and invalidation, for in that "one" we are so special and important. Wow Vicky, this was excellent writing. |

May love and light always shine upon you! Love, Noah Eaton "Underneath your clothes there's an endless story..." |

Vicky, this piece screamed of sadness and loneliness but I couldn't stop reading it. Wonderful write. Hugs, Marti Few are those who see with their own eyes and feel with their own hearts. |

This was immensely powerful... it unsettled me very much, largely because it sort of touched on something very personal. You write it very well, and you gave me the chills. I'm going to be reading this again. Kielo I know only one thing, and that thing is that I know nothing. |
