Bathed in ivory ray of light
weighed by circumstances found
gravity of each day takes night
keeping them still, quiet and sound

Consumed by emptiness unleashed
silent secrets fall from the sky
and the shadows begin to feast
questioning such answers of why

For each there must be another
for which their heart may ache or swoon
unknown, but loved like no other
upon this darkside of the moon

Fear is a blindness, heart is the cure.   -   C. Belville 02

Oh, I liked this very much Ctowen. You've explored this from a unique vantage, very nicely done indeed. I loved the phrase "and the shadows begin to feast". Much enjoyed!

Best wishes,

(big hugggsssssss) Oh Craig, this is so very true, the reason of why can be so obscure and you wait for gravity to turn the dark side over so you can find the answers! (sigh) This is excellent, sweet friend, I love it, we all love you so much! You have such a beautiful heart, sweet Craig, thank you for sharing!



May love and light always shine upon you!

Love,
Noah Eaton

There is a lot of truth and consequence in the sheerness of the ivory light...Oooo your words read so well beneath the moon.  No wonder I was tossing and turning last night!
