Welling, from the soul deep ready for release, to spring from sleep Swelling, to moments bleed to run the distance, to drop from seed Spelling, of building more tears of fears and joys, to flood from pour Telling, to simple tale ... it's always longer to cry than wail One's outlook can be another's expression. |

beautiful! turning mirrors upside down won't make dust fall off the ground, hiding wounds won't ease the pain, sleep won't make you whole again... |

"to run the distance, to drop from seed." There is something about that line that I think is so perfect. Definitely a thought-provoking poem! |

Telling, to simple tale ... it's always longer to cry than wail So much about this poem that I love...the words above did touch me so, and I wonder if I have been crying for years. Great work... Patricia |

How fitting that I should read this tonight. I can feel anothers persons tears from a distance, and am helpless to do anything about it. You write so nice Craig, I hope life is good. |
