Leave it all said the shadow
Deny trust laughed evil
No closeness sobbed a soul
Wrested breath aching sigh
Fitful sleep nothing nigh
Surround thought leftover pain
Everything lost nothing gained
Never never fame
Lost the game
Winnowing sighs
Into the dark
Orphans cried for access
Slumberers blinked an SOS
Wanderers fished the sky for signs
Lofty lights entered some sights
Souls were lost in the night

Perhaps you should sleep with a night light on! I know I'm going to sleep with one on from now on! I don't want my soul lost in the shadows of the night!

Great write!

Paul

Very emotive and filled with anxious images...almost like a bad dream.  Well done!

Almost like a nightmare, but full of intensity and very emotive.

(big hugggsssssss) God Bless You, sweet friend, I can understand this pain so very much and therefore embrace the night and go to bed late and sleep late into the morning! (sigh) I send many angel healing ugs your way, sweet friend, we all love you so much! You have such a beautiful heart, sweet Paul, thank you for sharing!



May love and light always shine upon you!

Love,
