Moving To Open Water Your views term the harsh of reality Holding me close, then turning away in finality Through the remnants of a vicious storm Tattering your heart to rags of forlorn But for the vital, dampening power of faith Listening to you spill out the pour of pain Piercing, unrelenting, such suffering rain Let flowing upon me, still I remain Do you think me brave? Naïve? My tears fall freely, so that yours may It is the whole of you I love this way What the storm curses, to let fall without harm As the wounds gorge, stillness, absent alarm For to love means taking precious to pursue Revealing of friend, hulls a ship strong by two Not only holding on but also helping through And whatever comes, affection prevails Standing the guard as the darkness exhales Facing the tears, that longing endears For the moment returns, and a gray sunrise clears Copyright Kkh 4/30/06 |

prevails....for a moment. Sometimes that is what keeps up going until the next moment.  "too bad ignorance isn't painful" |

WOW this is powerful writing! I love these lines: "And whatever comes, affection prevails Standing the guard as the darkness exhales Facing the tears, that longing endears For the moment returns, and a gray sunrise clears" |

This is a most beautiful, sad, heart wrenching write. So many powerful lines, such feelings written within. I envy you, I feel for you. |
