The buzz of your house, contained within bursting seams, my name in the air, hung familiar and accepted your mother loved to touch my hair, I don't know why~ sitting so close, ashtray shared we would wind the fingers of our vacant hands together sharing the look as your father would make you wince and me smile countless times, taking me outside to watch how the sky never moves but did my heart, and still does never did I imagine, this would be my still earth escaping never, the glint of stars, once envious of how we gazed, so close, and them so far apart from one another warmth of room, air so tight, if I could I would breathe in every second passed and exhale until I forget rainfall has increased, yet my tears fall less frequent cold upon feet reminds me of our beginning the winter I felt no wind, nor rain but the kiss of us warm upon my skin these same keys, tapped words woven out of the rainbow have become the grey sky, that was never dull, only a reminder of how you resembled every colour. Instant karma's gonna get you. |

This is stunning; particularly these lines "if I could I would breathe in every second passed and exhale until I forget" Kethry Here in the midst of my lonely abyss, a single joy I find...your presence in my mind. Unknown |

Sweet, sweet Gem! This sounds so much like a story that I would remember and try to tell, though probably not near as good as you my friend! This was amazing! |
