Who's reading Taste-The-Red-Hands (28):

Have you ever looked fear in the face?
Be prepared to fight.

Have you ever hated yourself for staring at the phone?
Wishing you didn’t feel so alone.

Have you ever been touched so gently you had to cry?
A touch so gentle, so warm, so alive.

Have you ever invited a stranger to come inside?
They’re only a stranger once.

Have you ever wished for an endless night?
Will it get better than tonight.

Have you ever heard silence speak?
It speaks much louder than words.

When will you try to find
Silence in every word?

When will you search for
Healing in every hurt?

When will you discover
A smile in every tear?

When will you try to find
Courage in every fear?

Learn to take a little less,
Learn a little more to give.

And hate a little less,
And then sit back and watch
As life sorts out its mess.

Every cloud has a silver lining
Every night precedes a day
Look at the brighter side of life,
besides the cup is only half full.

Fill it.

    i like this, netta. especially the last line.
    that's what i've been trying to do these past years.
    but sometimes it just gets so... like, you know... so... exhausting.
    like, you do everything to fill the fuckin cup,
    then someone walks in and drinks all of it, leaving you to refill it again and again.
    you know what i mean?
    LOL.
    but i like this poem very much.
    your mind, heart and soul have grown so much from that time i first stumbled onto your first calyptic poems.
    keep growing.
    and keep filling your cup to overflowing fullness, my friend.

    Thankyou moon.
    Awe, I know what you mean.

    And I don't think the cup will ever be completly full.
    But as long as you are content with its measurement, that is all you'll ever need.

Say Goodnight

Close your eyes
Under starlit skies...
I have a few writings inspired by other soulcasters. The muse for this one is Travelr712. I took a new direction after reading one of his posts. I hope a similar change will happen for you....
My diamonds fall too quickly....
for my love....
