A fool such as I
Building castles in the sand
A ship of love
With hollow hull
A jump from the edge
Of the ledge
Dying, trying,
To defy...loves gravity


Still waters run deep
Often true fades to blue
Yet darkness of a loosing pit
Seems to gravitate
Challenging
The very essence
Of the soul
Life itself
Remains in question
While purple eyes
Found to be made of jade


And breathe
Shall go on
Until someday
Turning to finality
Hearing a final gasp
Signifying...the end

Dennis, this is said, though you
told the feeling very well.
Thank you for sharing it....

(big hugggssssssss) This is so very sad but heartfelt, sweet friend, I too only wish it was that easy to embrace such a love and then each time gravity seems to take you down and the only way to survive is to let yourself sink in wait! (sad sigh) This is powerfully poignant, sweet friend, God Bless You, we all love you so much! You have such a beautiful heart, sweet Dennis, thank you for sharing!



May love and light always shine upon you!

Love,
Noah Eaton
