YOUTH

We wish we could go back
in time and tell our
younger selves things.

But how would that cause
us then to listen
to such wisdom offered?

It wouldn't just as our children
are wiser than us till
they have kids of their own.

ALWAYS

I use to believe I
would lived forever
die an old man.

Nothing remains the same
everything set in stone
time is a river.

As solid as today feels
yesterday is gone
tomorrow is elusive.

I remember every face seen
yet forget yesterday's meal
don't know what comes next.

Love is eternal,
Love is all I have,
Love lives beyond me.

Scared

If she really knew me
would she really love me?
I'm a simpleton
yet pretend complexity.
multiple layers of confusion.
An honest hard working
shape shifter scared
of being me.
Every day I find
something different in my skin.
Why does she love me
when I barely do myself?
A fragile new-born moth
still drawn to the destructive
flame of insanity.

The Four Diamonds of Varlendur.

This is the Bible of my story, it was later perverted into a Cultic religion that the main character of my tale, an elf named Fayendar leaves behind and finds true love.

The Passing Moments...

      I was just checking my email account on my new computer. Interesting how the PC format and larger screen presents things differently.
   I was looking through all the emails I had gotten from my Dad. Wow, It was nice "hearing" his (written) voice again! I guess it's natural to say this, but just wish we had said more things to one another. Miss you Dad can't be said enough.
   To express our true feelings to one another seems regretful in the hindsight when they are no longer with us....

Illuminated Manuscript

I'm going to strive to produce my story in a style like the old mideviel manuscripts. I think after a title page of course the first "Illuminated" drawing (using Gold Leaf) will be a reproduction of my Map. For a correct timeline, sadly Ramore will not be on it.

Getting a new pet today.

Some time ago my female ( http://search.yahoo.com/search?fr=ipad&p=ferret ) Rosie passed away. Today I'll be getting a new one, she's to

Be named Chloe.

HINT: No one gets out of this rat race we call life, alive; so you might as well leave a legacy that remembers you with no regrets and earnestness at your core.

Michael Smith and tears

Woke up this morning with an overwhelming sadness.

Not that old black pit of ever swallowing mouth of black suicidal doom and gloom depression.

It actually felt god to just be sad for the sake of remember the passing of someone without falling into that dispare.
