My Love, My Darling
My love, my darling
All around me
For if I am a hill, my love is the
Smokey fog cascading over my body
My love, my darling
Holding me, like a single petal can hold dew
though I evaporate, my love will wait for morning
At dawn, I fall upon my lover’s lonely leaf
We talk about how perfectly precious
This moment is
My love and I are competing with time
It’s a sorry game to play
Because I know this feeling will blow away
It always does for me
I wish I could keep my love, my darling
In a locket around my kissed neck
So I can look back on an oil masterpiece
To see if the paint is still drying
Agonizing, but better than nothing
I couldn’t forget him, or her
But my empty heart can’t hold the past inside
It’s a dreary feeling, to succumb to the pain of losing another
“My love, my darling”
For that angel in skin
will soon become another story of mine
One that’s sorely missed.

sometimes love is letting someone go in opening of your arms you release them to be themselves they may or not return it hurts but that person will always be a part of your soul fate and will together equals the true nature of soul love I used to think we only get one but all have left their soul print on me I will and have loved you all many forevers I'm fading please hold on to your memories even if you forget know I love and hated but I escaped the grey of the numb thanks to all of you...
