Love takes a toll on the heart
weakens
strengthens
takes from us
gives to us
cruel
wonderful
Love takes a toll on the heart
Blazing sphere
There you were
Firmaments beneath the earth
Kisses changing into seasons
Melodic
Rhythms of light
Folding all around
Her body
Holding her tight
Contracts of life
Singing Halleluiah
Great souls fill
Her vision
Simply with love

Beneath these clouds
Of happiness
With loving so adorned
Tears of loneliness
Since he went away
Longing for love with him
Beneath these clouds so grey
Her beauty
Doesn’t shine
Like it once had done
Her wings sown the sky
Of blue

On this day of days
Flying to find
Him in the heavens adorned
Beneath the clouds so new!

A hero wears a cape
To hide the scars and hand marks in his nape
Keeps them hidden so he can fly and escape
Ugh ******* responsibilities eat up my writing time. I just feel like crawling in a cave and forget what I need to ******* do. I am seriously annoyed this past couple of days because of the pressure of doing what I should. ***** that

Summer comes, Spring goes!
'O' the empty day shows
How A thirsty crow
Wants water to borrow!

Anybody never calls hello!
The wind of banners blow--
Ah!! She is always in my mind's hollow--
How the melancholy river is singing solo!!

"Broken Chains"

Friendship is supposed to have a special meaning
I feel as if I was left in the dark with moving walls
closing in - pushing together - enwrapped by the darkness
and yet I don't even understand
what happened to the light
what happened to the friendship
that I thought was unending
the gentle touch
of a mother's hand
is worth more than
its weight
in gold
I was just thinking about love,
and what could say more love
than a mother's gentle touch?
