You would know him by the distance held in his gaze. Even though his smile would say he was living in the here and now, gray eyes would unveil the mists of yesterdays gone by that still captures the images of that which would rob him of clearer visions. Time has faded the scenes driving them to dwell in dark places of memories hold. Yet, darkness cannot obscure the grotesque pictures of devastation and even in the face of better days the images surface at the edge of reality. The music of life does not soften the horror of screams still heard through endless internal echoes causing the heart to bleed with each separate sound of devastation reverberating through a tormented soul. No, you would not see his tears but if you listen closely his heart can be heard weeping. The greatest beauty on earth, is found in the hearts of those who love.... |
