Beloved

J J 1980 (NC)

Past behaviors, past thought, past actions being sought.
 Past beliefs being mocked, past experiences we bought.
 Past the fighting we fought, the laughter, the loss
 Past the tears we shed and the blood we bled,
 From whispers left unsaid, to words left unread,
 These tough times and hard crossed lines
 Taught us strength, with peace of mind.
 My vision has been shifted, my view has been lifted,
 You're still the same sight, just a little more bite,
 You remain a dream that lives in my day,
 and relives in night,
 by you I walk in light,
 With you... I live in love.

I enjoy the metaphors that link worlds between figures of speech and Truthful dialogue. From disturbing acronyms to predicate adjectives. They keep my mind in this race of who is next on the totem pole of literature.is a face without a mouth, eyes without lids, ears without drums, and a brain without a mind. " please be kind and enjoy. Be mindful Not Malleable. more…
