Evening has drawn it's self portrait upon the sky. I couldn't recognize your hair reflecting the pale moonlight.. I hear your words backwards. Tonight I tied the laces tighter than usual.. But circulation is not neccesary when the earth is frozen and in mid-shiver. I hear it's teeth chatter. I hear your voice, still..the words that should've never been spoken.. We will never forget how close we've gotten to the edge of the world..the end. I run my fingers through thick strands, trace them along the braids of time, and I wonder is this you? You, who dries the tears I cried years ago.. Dressing up the memories I long to forget.. In better chilled winds I halt my step.. Your footprints no longer follow me, so shall I weep? I hear your words backwards... |

Meghan, the first impression I got I hear your words backwards and the bit about tying the laces tight, gave me the image of iceskaters... a very pleasing visual. Merry Christmas! |

No, you should not or never weep, but rejoice for knowing and being able to resound on the voice of this love...for in this awareness you were and are still and forever be blessed, changing your life forever for the good. This was something very sacred that only you knew, and perhaps not even him...but it became you...in many ways...and shines a new concept in your heart, a new knowlege forever complimenting you to a different plain in life...walk forward in great awareness of this endowment upon your soul. Wonderfully written...and a great sculpture of what will be from now and forever more. I very much enjoyed. Thank you for writing and sharing. |

beautiful, sad, just beautiful and sad joy has its own justice. and dreams are languid and lawless. and everything bows to beauty, when it's fierce and when it's flawless... |
