Your
rips my heart,
yet tears have dried
sight has been restored;
your Light does not block me
though your darkness continues
on a blind course of destruction;
solace escapes you, madness within
you sow, harvest of your Love’s discontent.

I love that Cairenn. It reminds me of a darkness that I have experienced and took me many years to understand and move beyond. Thank you.
It was written just moments ago of the same place. Thank you for your support Melanie. I have not had the chance to chat with you often, wish to do so, and acknowledge your presence on FB and Twitter. It means the world to me. :)
