Favorite Quote:
let it burn, suffering teaches the soul; let it grow, love nourishes the heart.


Sad whisper escape from my broken heart,
telling the tale of a love once so strong,
the woe I feel has no end, just a start,
this everlasting hell, is just so wrong,
fire burns my soul, eating away my life,
leaving behing the corpse of my near past,
giving me time to heal, to shed much strife,
day for day, my hell goes away, so fast,
whispers no longer come, my heart has healed,
forever is over, life starts again,
the fire is quenched, my soul newly revealed,
I've come through a passage, known to all men,
the loss endured, of one you love so pure,
only to realize that time is the cure.

this piece came into creation one night when I let a close friend of mine go for the final time, without the possibility of return. I had fought to keep from losing myself when she was gone, and in the end, after some time, I previaled.
