I walk the trodden hallowed path as destiny lies at my feet Bare soul cast to the winds from a shuddering heart’s beat Why must a soul depart and walk alone into the wilderness of forgotten dreams where time has whisked days into seconds and seconds into a lifetime of memories As my soul walks life passes on That spark of energy given upon the first beat of countless beats as the first neuron fires within a brain where memories lie resting stirring occasionally Love has altered the beat of my heart bringing forth staccatos, tremors and moments when a beat ceases as the death of love comes to a dying, yet beating heart. (Something different, flexing my wings) |

I like this Barry, but the death of love? We don't want that, you are the romantic poet, remember Sandra |

Sandra, Fret not my lady For the pen of love shall be mighty as the sword springing ever free... Thanx Sandra... |

May love and light always shine upon you! Love, Noah Eaton "Underneath your clothes there's an endless story..." |
