So this is what it's like to writhe among your own ashes not quite burnt alive by my own textured flame passionate I hear their voices that expell grief with every motion of their tongue I notice they multiply in sadness do goodbyes the older I become and they are abundant whichever way I choose to say it this time or that goodbye squirms in breeding ritual boasting of a new beginning to every end maybe I was already gone before this end had begun with no map of anyones head. |

"I notice they multiply in sadness do goodbyes the older I become and they are abundant" Solemn nodding here. About two years ago, when I lost my father, I thought, "dominoes, now"... I was right, too. You just wrote a lump in my throat. this was a bull's eye for me, lady. Hugs. |

Always a cool write from you GJ I think I shall keep this one. Maree  Beauty of the world which is soon to perish has two edges, one of laughter and one of anguish, cutting the heart asunder. |

i love this...everything about goodbyes, so tragic and so true 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... |
