Upon beholding yesterday, once more, down the long way she had come, she realised that the warmest memories had often grown by the darkest pathways. Tears of silver gently fell to the ground, giving life to the future.

I am staring at today's prompts, and somehow just don't feel it. Ink flows on pages, exploring options. Cast adrift in their wake, a lighter, and a princess, unburdened by release, in the magic toyshop, blissed not to be fleshed out, any further by my pen

In those days, when we could still talk, you taught me that it is not our responsibility to fulfil anybody else's expectations, but that we are souls in distinction, having only to fit into our own shoes.
Our roads split, when hatred started to devour the person I knew. You fought so hard to lose yourself. I guess you won.
But I wanted you to know, that I still remember.
I love you.
Travel gently, now.

Matches
Do you know those connections where, when you meet for the first time in this life, it is like:
"Warm to meet you!"
And it feels like you have known each other for eons?
These encounters, that are like bridges through time, and space?
A spark of heaven that ignites the fading life anew, when umbral breath was no more teasing, but had grown...

The question
is not
if I believe
in you
The question
is rather
if I believe
in me
Impassioned tongues instilling the paranoia of control into people's minds, are believed to be of power. But it is not belief that fills a quill, it is faith.
I let it rest in my heart's love - a tender spark that gently grows beyond within. Control is fear of the unknown. I rather dance through life in serendipity's embrace.

The Survivor
There was a time when I thought other people's opinions were knowledge.
Wisdom even.
Inside the noise, an entrance begged.
A spark.
It was the wisdom of my heart, where, in all sincerity, my true guidance resides.
And I survived.

When I look into your eyes, it is not like the love has gone. I just cannot find you any more.
On a gloomy day, I walk, the weight of the world pressing in on me, when a golden ray breaks through the grey to give the frosty pavement an auric appearance.
A flourish unbidden...
Skiing back into love, I marvel at how Nature always does it for me.

An ordinary incident. Probably, most people wouldn't even pay any attention to it.
But I'm not like most people. Not since, in the nightmares, they finally sucked me dry, and made me one of them.
Worried I might have no reflection, I stare into the looking-glass until...

It's beautiful, now, all neatly written down, bound, and placed on a shelf in the bookstore.
But once upon a time, she was the Queen of the Damned, living in a hell that had been imbued on her long before his departure.

"Dear Nobody,
That's who you told me you were, anyway, with this sweet, and cold, look on your face. I said nothing in return, because sometimes language eludes the heart. Mine was sinking, in that moment,...

I rustle through the carpet of leaves as patterns of thought overwrite family history. Unrevealed volitions rise from chthonic depths of spirit as the ungrateful son I never was becomes the daughter of Gaya I am.

BEFORE THE WAR
The rich fragrance of Summer’s history rustles through yellowed pages descended from treetops gilded by Autumn's light between sunrise, and sunset.
At night, mist ascends to paint those peaceful mornings which announce the Snow Queen's imminent...

Before the war
the snow queen
emanated
between sunrise and sunset
reflected
from dusk till dawn
Before the chasm
changed her heart's
geography
It's beat
still an irregular rhythm
is fading

In focus

The ground exhaled. Then came the frost. In the domestic vacuum, solidified trauma began to melt. Fertile grounds for verdancy.

When on long, dark mornings creatures linger in the shadows, what brings me through the hollow hour is not endurance for it is benevolence that ignites the dawn.

When asked, a resident of the Bavarian village we once visited told us he had Wolpertinger perusing his nightly garden. We didn't yet know they were mythical creatures. We also didn't take the leap of faith to come and see.
I still wonder...
