I am small

05/2013

but I am more than I ever dreamed

because of love I can carry on

non-afraid of the cracks in the mirror

I can kiss the lips of death

leaving behind this downfall

forgetting the heartbreak 

I can become one with the light

a sunrise that has reached out for me

since before the morning dawned clear and cold

even when darkness still curtained my eyes

now the rules do not apply

now I shine

I'm intrigued by how each line follows one another, every word, your expression. You've formed a sturdy skeleton that is bright.. Love lifts a spirit and provides strength, like a light at the end of a tunnel, hopeful and persistent, our most powerful emotion, source energy. You shine because you choose to, because you let the love you have lead your way, and it is felt, that determination and vigor. You've written an astounding piece of art here. It's a beauty.

I don't mind. Thank you, Joshua. I am back in Denmark, and I had a lovely trip. It feels good to be home after a month though.

I love this one of yours Josh.

I loved this brother! I could feel everything you felt when you wrote this! I love being able to feel exactly how you feel. I can imagine a couple of things while I was reading this! Thank you for sharing. :)

This felt real, to me. The touch to the other side, whilst dreaming, maybe in purgatory, maybe yet touched the side of death... the mirror of being finally free.

I felt free with you on this one, it is dreamy and so well written Joshua.
You have something very unique in your writings. I enjoyed.
