“Makes me feel like a thief when you're bleeding.” Scott Walker, Duchess
In the river at foot of my bed
drowned reliquaries are sealed,
please tell the divers to stop their search
If you miss the last train home
make sure you miss it….running
No amount of poetry could
mend this broken heart;
the words ‘move’ and ‘on’
are an anagram of o’venom

Short and filled with that pining loss a requiem of beauty and longing
You my friend are a fucking poet
Tearing wounds open and using it as ink

Thank you Tod. We're all travellers to the grave, but sadly, some go too early. Respect my friend.

I'm so sorry for your loss. For the world's loss.
God she was beautiful. Inside and out.

She was Betty. Just full of love and laughter. That selfie is so poignant. She was at work and just asked if she could be my wife?

All I have is a sigh...
And it's pretty damn heavy, Rob.
Take care of you. For all of us.
