Elusive Prince I shall forget now how once you laid your head against my weary breast crashing your waves into my ocean flat belly rolled of Neptune's skin, leaving me with hope, mechanism to cope in make-believe and fairytales. My little girl world is shattering like panes of broken glass, each shard thrusts deeper, jagged tears leaving me with only an ache for my heart. But, I must remember that the doorway to heaven is also the gate to hell. By Melissa Long-Monette |

(big hugggsssssss) Depending on if you're looking up laying down or standing still, up does not always lead back down! (sigh) This is powerfully heartaching, sweet friend, I hope all is well with you, I send healing hugs your way, we all love you so much! You have such a beautiful heart, sweet Melissa, thank you for sharing! May love and light always shine upon you! Love, Noah Eaton Underneath your clothes, there's an endless story |

Gosh, could feel those shards.... Such beauty in the words written of a tragedy. Perhaps the Prince will not remain so elusive?? I surely hope so... |
