Thought Excavation A blank page waits. Soon it will be filled with words - from thoughts that I've kept hidden away in cobwebbed recesses. I am forging them to the front now, digging them out painstakingly through each layer. Memories linger in the dank air and slow my progress, making me want to turn back and give up on this painful operation. But the page waits, as do you and so I prod on. I near the front, and look back on the path that I have cleared. I know now what I must write. I would rather tramp through the tenebrous alcoves of my mind than write those words. All of them leading to the one word that I would hide away forever - Goodbye. Your beautiful words & creativity allow me to connect with the same in myself. |

Goodbyes are difficult for me as well....sometimes it's so difficult to know what to do. Well done. ~sky I'm in charge, and I say question authority! |

(big hugggssssss) Oh Krista, this is so very sad, sweet friend, I know how hard it must fell goodbye and I pray this no longer applies to you and now you are greeted each day with true joy! (kiss on cheek) You deserve the greatest happiness of all, sweet friend, we all love you so much! You have such a beautiful heart, sweet Krista, thank you for sharing! May love and light always shine upon you! Love, Noah Eaton |

All of them leading to the one word that I would hide away forever - Goodbye. ============================ Wonderful vocabulary and phrasing in this Krista...we must let the muse take us where it shall. This is a bittersweet beauty...clever title and word play...and the ending is poetically perfect. Well done poetess |
