Fade To Black~

Missing image




I just want


to run


leaving petals in my path
to wilt

love's
lingering
scent~



footsteps falling
away from flutter

and into shadow's arms



someplace where dreams

fade
to
black

and shadows keep me company
while the moon hides it's glow


in someone else's sky.~

    "the moon hides its glow in someone else's sky" is such a poignant admission of love lost.

    Ooooh well I may have clicked from your page, but lets hope it makes me get my butt to judging this eh? I adore this sis - so very beautiful in its sadness, something that I most certainly can feel without a doubt - and relate far too well. Beautiful! Thank you so much for your entry & Best wishes in the contest!

    well you certainly got me feeling the sadness and heartbreak in the words. you write as passionately about the loss of love as you do the glory of finding it and welcoming it into your heart. great job dear cuz
