In Memorium

[PearlDrums]

'O thy grieved and painted silence of a soul too soon to go.

Succumb to the kiss of life’s' cycle, mottled tears I'll never show.

Hung suspended in a moment, time waning, clutching dear.

As death tears us apart though in distance we were so near.

The coldest silence set in motion by warmest stream.

Of bittersweet tears so surreal in this dream.

Atrophy, this dissonance as smiles taste bland.

No more warmth in the sunlight than safety in hand.

Soft, dark and wispy a phantasmagoria it fades.

As no love can seem to restore what time stole away.

I throw my arms to the sky.

In a lamentuous cry.

How could this glorious world, my reality sever?

May angels sing thee to thy rest.

On softest wings so pellucid, safest in best.

God take him home in shelter forever.

I think it should be "In Memoriam", but what a rich language even if old-fashioned! meet for a departing grandpa... a moving tribute.

And I love this quote:

"To live: To paint with all the colors of experience and embrace the beauty of the creation you make, because no matter what the product is, its always your masterpiece. ♥"

Be blessed and well, Bar

Thank you, I've been going through a lot I have so much more to share. I'm just trying to hold on and weave in bits of lights into the darkness-embued fabric of my situation. Using music and words as mediums through which I hope I can someday ameliorate my soul and make these dark times brighter and myself someone stronger. Thank you for your support, it means more then you could ever know. : )
