What words could spill heartbeats into cool water?
These flows of magma from the soul that won’t be cooled
And should I lean into the wind, denying all by right defend?
Separate the happiness away and hope my heart is fooled?

Does it matter equally, if another fails to see?
Oceans stir inside of me a boundless paradise unsealed
And should I say it less for them, keeping silent in pretend
Since wounds of once before have closed for me and healed?

What words could lift from far within to take the breath of spring?
But those I speak in earnest ease, set free from silent percolate
And should I say in the right way, more real to be expressed it may
Since then no doubt to warm once out, as matters most to demonstrate

(big hugggssssssss) It will be up to you to discover this answer, as we all have a way in getting where we need to be! (sigh) Justice will be served to you, dearest friend, if a thorn can pierce the flesh it surely will come out, we all love you so much! You have such a beautiful heart, sweet Kathleen, thank you for sharing!



May love and light always shine upon you!

Love,
Noah Eaton

You dear lady are a warm smile, a cool breeze, a single tear drop...a pure and endless emotion, the essence of poetry.
