Singing of life and it's many losses throughout, <br />matching rhythms to tears. <br /> <br />Continuing to fall into depths of inner labyrinths <br />and abysses, all left behind by the death of <br />loved ones, missed forevermore. <br /> <br />Capturing tears, placing them in cradles of emotion <br />where they will be rocked and cared for throughout <br />life, because they can never be lost or forgotten. <br /> <br />Taking care of them so they won't continue to hurt <br />with their sharpened shards of crystal broken tears <br />as they fall like glass within torn hearts. <br /> <br />Tinkling in minds for a lifetime, never letting go <br />of them even in times of joy and happiness, all <br />memories joined with their echoing cries in an <br />entire lifetime. <br /> <br />Gifted, misplaced, tenderly compassionate towards <br />others in this world who need a caring soul and <br />heart to touch theirs in the icy cold of death's <br />embrace. <br /> <br />Sojournly walking away, combining expressions and <br />experiences together in a mixture of sorrowful grief, <br />holding oneself to rigors of everyday life. <br /> <br />No wonder left to be felt deeply inside where all loss <br />continually resides in each of us, so placidly and <br />temporarily we walk to our final sunsets and end.<br /><br />RoseAnn V.
