Liquid

Liquid As the liquid completes his body The mind calms to a halt Knowing the calamity of the world has stopped And what his soul defines as peace Starts to set in While trying to inflate the emptyness that lies within If only for a short quivering space in time The harshness and the unrighteous of his journey Fades to a distant reality Which is all he needs to give him that taste of peace in his life again

Your podcast gave me more context. I sensed pain but was unaware of the depth. So sorry for your loss. Hugs Rick.
