River of Words…

“It is such a secret place, the land of tears.” 

~ Antoine de Saint-Exupery, The Little Prince ~

~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~

~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~

Suppressed temptation…

Longing…anticipatiously…

Dream of loves sweet embrace…

Yet again…slowly rushing…

Peace, joy, happiness…

Sublime impatience…

Remember…No…don’t remember…

Create new pieces…a new journey to adventure…

Excitement…

All that I was is added to all I will become…

The path I fear to tread…

Fear, pain, agony…new pieces…

Now I know…

Now I can add those to the past puzzle…

Tears falling…

Creating the new river…

Ready to be swept away…

Letting go…

My sadness makes you immortal…

Reflections in my eyes of who I was…

Morphing into….

Who I will become…

  1. Mondrak, thank you so much!! I sometimes hesistate to hit the publish button…really really appreciate you sharing your kind praise!! 🙂 I kind of make up words sometimes, especially when I don’t have one and I need to say something…it’s a quirky thing I do. 😉 So I made up ‘anticipatiously’ 😀

  2. anticipatiously…not even webster’s can stop us from communicating exactly what we truly feel 🙂 letting go isn’t always a bad thing, neither is remembering. this is a brave piece, a moment of revelation with happiness within reach. you deserve it, christina 🙂

  4. Why is letting go the most difficult part ?
    ‘cas to let go, you have to tear that rotten part of your memory away before it becomes septic.
    Still, only memories regrow faster than happiness and grief !!!
