Yesterday fades as day arrives
Thoughts carried within hearts beating
the musical love of their lives
No longer playing, receding

Left behind, the song now ended
love rests silent within a chest
Living lives apart, not blended
doing what they both...know is best.

Silence fills the rooms within walls
for the tune has played, is quiet
Soft steps no longer echo halls
The menu of love’s new diet.

Whispers once told of the fire’s heat
as three words did make two hearts melt
Once together and much complete
Apart in silent prayer both knelt.

Praying love would not them perish
forever in hearts now alone.
Lost in mem’ries they so cherish
The silence of the line and phone.

Words of rhyme so tenderly shared
from the quills of two in love’s prance
Wildly writing the words they dared
letting love have...just one more dance

The waltz or the tango...it is the energy that both put forth, and a magnificent dance.
So well done as always, as the bar is lifted.
Thank you. ThisDiamond

When hearts sing, no other music is required...move those feet, this is lovely...

(smiles) Ooohhhhhhh...I love this, sweet friend, the tango too is my favorite dance, it has a lot of body movement and I just love to get up and pirouette! (big hugggssssss) May you always waltz to the beat of true love, sweet friend, we all love you so much! You have such a beautiful heart, sweet Barry, thank you for sharing!



May love and light always shine upon you!

Love,
Noah Eaton

Magnus darling boy yet again you’ve written an absolutely gorgeous and terribly sad piece. The terrible thing is you do them so well so I can’t even say to myself no don’t read it. You make me cry so much darling boy and it’s really not fair you know, I look terrible when I’ve been crying, my face goes blotchy.

As always darling boy it’s utterly utterly excellent. And yes I love it even if it did make me cry


Love and warm stuff
As always
