I felt the door close, shut softly
my heart, the door of my torn heart
I felt the word flowing over me
A black shroud of foreverness

The tear of torn tissue, rended
A shudder of life’s soul dying
Loneliness consuming, arrives
Life, the great hole of lost goodbyes

"...Life, the great hole of lost goodbyes..." Moving my friend ~Rayne

For in much wisdom is much grief
& he who increases knowledge
    increases sorrow...

Magnus darling boy and again you speak the words that every soul remembers, the lost and torn feelings that seem to rip you from your place in the sun and toss you un-cared for into the depths of despair. The amazing this is you can speak to me even when the very thought of such a feeling is alien to me. Only a true writer can speak to a soul that dances in loves light of the pain that is but a distant memory.

I love this utterly utterly and this of course you know.


Love and warm stuff
As always
Mushy

Breathe through the heat of our desire
Thy coolness and they balm
Let sense be dumb let flesh retire
Speak through the eathquake wind and fire
Oh

Magnus:
You must have wandered down into the canyon of separation and returned with this sad affinity for the perils of open hearted giving.
I really enjoyed the read!

After reading your ode to Karilea once again (and backing off from comments that would have gotten me into much trouble *G*) I wasn't expecting this painful purge. *S* But it's very well written. *S*

G'head, Toe... just remember that your stomped on aorta has suthern comfort waiting. *G*
