Ivory Stone Out goes the light glowing within her tonight Darkness creeps slower then the seasons change Inside she's swallowed by craters of an empty place in life Desire on fire for the thoughts that's she retained... Few turn their head to even acknowledge what real pain is Some bury what they know but let it pass by Several brand her as the rose that didn't grow So sure her physical being isn't the picture of lies... Don't be the first to cast that ivory stone in hopes of cleansing souls First brighten your own path before you can ever see clear to hers Don't take the sight of the obvious to be just what it is Cause, even that bird in flight may have a different route he prefers... But, you take what's before you and just move one step at a time This time that ivory stone may be at your back if you should fall The weight of it's meaning is more then any words from the mouth When, just maybe, you've never been that bird in flight at all... Restlessness can call on us when we least expect it to When torment is flowing through of poison within us But, to cast that ivory stone to clean what you may be feeling within May leave the impression of that eagle and destination not enough... Palest in color but harsh to the body and eyes That ivory stone can leave one to slowly die Don't be the hand behind any stone to be thrown Without at least finding strength to be the victim of your own... Sauni:)The Only Time I See The Sun Is When I'm Within That Vanilla Breeze.The Only Time I'm One With The Sun Is When He Shelters Me From The Rain. L.S |

  (big hugggsssssss) Yes, and if we are to be thrown like such this stone, may we do so in hope to fly like that free bird and go our own direction for the name of Love! (sigh) May we use the stone as protection for whats ahead, sweet friend, we all love you so much! You have such a beautiful heart, sweet Saunni, thank you for sharing!  May love and light always shine upon you! Love, Noah Eaton "Underneath your clothes there's an endless story..." |
