turn the lights low please my sight has been attuned to the night wash rainfall fresh walk of haven . . . The deepened scars glint within the moonlight I stare at them and laugh half-heartedly of course There are no cotton comforts or cool jeweled pools of late to create a sanctuary of sorts from myself you see It is not this dying world of which I find fear but this damp, black death I have lain across my face I am left to gaze only upon a trace of me beneath this veil of mourning |

Your work has grown so much and so quickly my sista. I truly love the form of this--you just went in there and truly touched base with yourself and produced an honest expression without any of the bells and whistles. And guess what? When ya can do that? You don't need the razzmatazz. Hugs you. I love the direction your writing is taking. |

"There are no cotton comforts or cool jeweled pools of late to create a sanctuary of sorts from myself you see" Oh my...Sue...do you have ANY idea how deeply this hit me? Of course you do...smile. The honesty of this is beautiful... Thank you...for YOU... When the power of love overcomes the love of power the world will know peace. -Jimi Hendrix [This message has been edited by vlraynes (09-27-2003 04:11 PM).] |

But? Why? You are one of the sweetest people I have ever met. Don't answer. That's just me thinking out loud, but I have to ask myself why. You have been kind to me. Seems so unfair, and undeserving. I say don't answer because that's not something I'm sure you would want to talk about in a not so private place, but I just hate to see this. If it's not about you personally then this is sad for anyone who is going through this. I pray they get better soon. SharaRose @-->-- Of sound, and speech let all lift the hearer! |

"I am left to gaze only upon a trace of me beneath this veil of mourning" Mourn not for traces, seen, but for faces, unseen. I enjoyed reading. coyote 8) "Who knows if to live is to be dead, and to be dead, to live? And we really, it may be, are dead; in fact I once heard sages say that we are now dead, [This message has been edited by coyote (09-30-2003 10:08 PM).] |

Littlewing I have just answered this but must have pressed the wrong button and lost it. The images you portay are so tragic that I going to think it is about someone else. Hugs, Maggie |
