I never regret the time we had that was uneven like the roads of ebron when the monsoons wash them and they are ragged hems at the edge of a pale summer we were worshipers there pilgrims on journey boats with the long oar prayers dipping smooth psalms deep into a worthy religion without a sacrificial symbol on either side of perfection and our sin was small talk that kept love smothered but there was healing too by the forgiven gallons on every corner of our moments free for the taking and we bathed our fill even til dawn some evenings we were the silver swans that sunsets whispered of we made furrows in the pools that were healed by our laughter ________________ daark |

DS "on either side of perfection and our sin was small talk that kept love smothered but there was healing too by the forgiven gallons on every corner of our moments" and "healed by our laughter" Wonderful, you! |

Every word of this is like a drop of water caught in the light of the moon. My favourite parts are: "and they are ragged hems at the edge of a pale summer" and "dipping smooth psalms" and "we were the silver swans that sunsets whispered of we made furrows in the pools that were healed by our laughter" If you hadn't travelled the roads of ebron, we wouldn't have had this moon-drop poem. - Owl |

on either side of perfection and our sin was small talk that kept love smothered but there was healing too by the forgiven gallons on every corner of our moments and we silently mouthed love words to the saint stained sky crossing some imagry line staggering like elegant innocence in a neatly encased sleeve of roused Cheshire eyes blooming amdist the language of heaven...scribed into blameless hereafter OHHHH, now look what you've inspired you write without compromise...knowing the confidential friend of eternity's drawing room. |
