Reflections from the Core

You ask me  
but I can’t name them
my troubles all
so lost am I to sky a glance
would dance the loss
and hear the weep

I am only air
do not listen to my call
the world is crying
and I cannot hold them all
wasted minutes gone gone

Confuse the inner space this hope
is suffering the most
and numbers subtract themselves
until I’m left with me myself

The core circles in again
to hold my skin so dear I try
to hear the sky and all all
withdraw one splendor cause in faith
a gate that opens past the pall
and meets the end in time safe

Then to what purpose give report
that travels swift upon the day
and turns the clock around around
to find the place beginning ends
and only trouble find again

I love the way you have of taking the reader along for the ride....twisting, turning, walking in circles....starting all over again.

(big hugggsssssss) Oh Martie, I understand these feelings so well but I know that deep in the core of it all the diamond rests and you will find circles of joy come swimming to you, yay! (kiss on cheek) I send angel hugs your way, sweet friend, we all love you so much! You have such a beautiful heart, sweet Martie, thank you for sharing!



May love and light always shine upon you!

Love,

I am only air

you know you just wrote a moth anthem ...
and you know what I always say...(it aint easy being a moth baby)
....yes....you know.
so lost am I to sky a glance
would dance the loss
and hear the weep

I am only air
do not listen to my call
the world is crying
and I cannot hold them all
wasted minutes gone gone



oh my...this bleeds and weeps so beautifully.
mothyhugs you!!

Then to what purpose give report
that travels swift upon the day
and turns the clock around around
to find the place beginning ends
and only trouble find again
Cycles, routines can be broken, sometiems the spiral goes up instead of down. Hope all is well. enjoyed the read, btw I found the song.
