Sylvia and Ted
When you were with me
I never could die
My eyes wandered
without you, my fear had noises
all the steps, the shadows
were solid things
When I wrote the death
it scratched out sheets of paper
but when you were with me
I was for lasting the entire life
Your legs
supported my falls.

Wonderful tribute to their volatile, somewhat tragic love - and a great conclusion!
-
When you were with me
I never could die
So true. And death when turned opposite.

This is really well done, JT, especially S3 and 4, wow.
I'm reading Plath's journal now. I have not yet reached the point where she meets Ted. Should be interesting.
Nice work.
