Last night listening to that song
I was taken back to teenage years
Before the axe came down
Severing me from love
And I remembered how it was
To be with you both
Often so alone .. like an only child
But cradled at least
By something close to love
And it seems to me
That the later fall through outer space
Eclipsed for so long
More tender memories
Of innocent days
Before destruction of life
Set me so far apart
From everyone
So that now it seems
I can only find complete comfort
In aloneness and silence
So when you come offering me love
And I am tempted to shut the door on it
Will I find the courage
To allow the surrender of blocked memory
To free
The torrent of grief
That will open and carry me forward
To a place
Where I can finally embrace
The possibility of dependency
Connection and love
Beautiful, beautiful beautiful and I felt the aching pain too.
Love how you put so much heart into your writing π

Yes but at other times I find the silence full of love. It just depends on the mood of that particular day…<3
