Living, Loving, Leaving

I always said
she seemed to have
such an...

...old soul...

Peering into her
liquid gaze,
I saw not a

child

but one who
had really

lived!

She loved life
as I have never seen
another living being

do.

She understood
the meaning
of living in the

moment

perhaps because
she already knew
that a moment
was all she had...

...left...

A flash in the night
A twinkling star
A blink of an eye
was all that she was

granted

this time around
and knowing that,
still she laughed

until weary...

...she left.

Makes it feel like it was my child..I mean, I read these words, and I don't know how you feel, but I have an idea it's about a million tymes more intense than what I am feeling.

There is great strength in you, and your poetry speaks it. You are an amazing person/poet. There isn't much more I can say. Immaculate.. +T.P.U+

I believe and feel this to be true as I read it, a sense of trust in the poet that there can be no debate that each word comes from the soul. But that is not the only importent thing while reading it.

I am left with thinking that she did the only thing that matters in life even if briefly. And the msg. is strong in that, it is to me. -Nadir-

how very heartflet.. ever so delicately so. this just runs down the page like blue teardrops on a night sky.. where her soul floats away. what can i say ambrosia, this one really touched me.

beautiful form and flow--I can relate to elements of life that are fleeting
