one slow silent tear today only one this time, it’s easier now but the hollow aching heat the flame that burns like dying alone one tear could never quench |

Perhaps one tear can't quench that flame of pain... but it's very solitude can sear a path through a heart... This is exquisite... form and substance are perfect complements. If anything so sad could deserve the term beautiful, this does. [This message has been edited by suthern (04-12-2005 10:57 AM).] |

And we wonder where the salt of the earth comes from... sometimes, one tear. |

Salted earth ~~ yes, at times it can feel like that's a really good description. But only at times, thank goodness. ~~J [This message has been edited by James_A_Fraser (04-12-2005 09:37 AM).] |

becoming easier, but still a heavy tear... Waiting for the time it rolls over a dimple, tickling it a bit, turning it into smiling memory sadie |

Within the form and words, the solitude and pain is delivered. Powerful write in its simplicity. |

I agree "If anything so sad could deserve the term beautiful, this does." Very well written too! |

you just reminded me of my brother at my mother's funeral kneeling, I looked up at him in time to catch a glimpse of that one tear streaming |

There is so much beauty in your words. How very poignant, like dying alone! *sigh* You made my eyes water, James_A~ |

we ponder the grains of sand, when in fact, the grains of sand ponder us and take us to their place...of granite and healing.... Hugs |
