GRIEF
skins sloughed out of shivering suffering flesh
pain in its sharp extreme
strike my heart like sharpened bamboo
everytime
your voice breaths air from it's boxed contained
I want to claw out
that soul into existence
to scream that stale air into life
sobs hit under my rib cage
unexpectedly
any time it wishes
a syllable
an intonation
feel like asking
are you him
eh? ..are you him
in my mind I see
the bridge across
the dull dark river leaf-strewn
dead autumn leaves greying on planks
that knew thousands of footsteps
grief and sorrow, desolation, loneliness
from one side to the other
travelled through so many times
I don't know about You but certain aspects of nature ...truly have magical feel...like waterfalls etc...just instant
I miss you.

Yes
there are so many bridges
and there is so so much magic
And there always is. So Much
Hope,
in the Moonlight
In the Daylight and
In Every Light
Keep being thee Light

We all build bridges until we find the right person to let in. Keep on writing
