THE LAST WALK

Jacob Balkwill 1984 (windsor)



The Last Walk

As a disfigured shaded figure can trigger a moment of longing or even fear. We share something in common,
A need for the ruffle in life. The wrinkle in ones beautiful skin. That meticulous line; that explanatory note explaining with little to no words...
I Have Lived...
A Graceful glance when eyes connect, and the clear concise, beating begins to flutter and jump just enough to catch your breathe. Memories flood and in that single breath the time you spent trying to fix things makes complete sense.
Was It love?
maybe it was back then, but what do we call it now.
How can one give up everything for an addiction.
don't you realize that family isn't just a word.
COME BACK TO US...YOUR FAMILY MISSES YOU.
