Saturating all, wrath falls, its presence cold cascading droplets graze the pain inside, where all that shimmers brightly is not gold depending on which storm cloud chose to ride; empty days of purple dreams gone by- overpowering billows dye the sky. ¤ Uneven silhouettes guide eyes to view the constant trickle flows through veins once mean, my entire world is draped in pitch-black-blue where blind men walk the emptiness they’ve seen; I cannot carry on with burdened pain- so stumble forth with outstretched hands In vain. ¤ The sun continues cultivating rays hoisting the soil majestically with trust, existence peeps beyond the dusky haze rejuvenated, love thrusts through fears crust; softened the ground leads my travelled feet- I bear the ache, shall not submit defeat. ¤ There yonder, stands a bridge I dare to cross I offer all I am, and yet to be, to realise my pain is not of loss and all I own does not belong to me; happiness is something you can’t find it’s hidden in the bends within your mind. ¤ I voyaged far to seek the truth of calm to learn that healing always starts inside, trusting the soul will never come to harm that loves the biggest rule we should abide; I freefall on a rainbow sphere of peace to sail the skies, in perfect sweet release. ©2002 Samantha G Kennedy [This message has been edited by Samantha G Kennedy (07-27-2002 02:00 PM).] |

Second, let me say that this is a very wonderful piece of writing, and an excellent entrance to Passions. Welcome and I know you will enjoy your days here. Hugs to you. Enjoy life, this is NOT a dress rehearsal. |
