no place to take this tonight |

Wickedly captivating, your smile, dances in and out of focus blinking redundantly within the waves, resonating rainbeats perptually sink now within synchonic outlines, a final resting place, temporary salvation, the heart is striken; cradled, then punished the appartion begins final fadeout as you stretch along the drowning miles, was it purely imagination that you ever touched down at all? pounding the puddles bullets fall upon an already grieving heart, the sky is waterlogged,drowning in its own deluge, a slapping sting, your silence stains these tearfilled walls, shaking with storms withering in foam ever moving, but trapped, you live within, the waves crown the sea; midnight is draped in the beauty of madness, there is no place to take this pain tonight.

A wonderfully empty write... sometimes it seems this way... I look forward to the time when you are full again, and write of that. |

You have taken the pain on to these pages of blue and you did it in powerful poetic expressions. Love and hugs. Margherita |

Powerful, poignant, fierce, yes, that's it the fierceness of the abyss, falling from that cliff, who will catch and hold you... take these words |

Oh, Michele, I can put myself in this scene with complete understanding. You said something I have felt a time or two myself so very perfectly. This is like hearing music that makes you cry because it touches a part of you in its sad beauty. .....jo |
