I saw all life fade ... merely pass away of all that I knew hath spun around me past brace presence death, carpe mortem day Night hung in shame, weighed aim, promised Word--stay I spun confused, afterlife, mine this be? I saw all life fade ... merely pass away Dark woke me, said the sun won't come this way death seized day plus time ... Latin decree past brace presence death, carpe mortem day Night consoled by dark, a first solace sway a dead-end sign that the whole world did see I saw all life fade ... merely pass away Dark ponders fate yon ... night watched black turn gray questions ... guilt gift ~ solves ... smiles eternity past brace presence death, carpe mortem day. Night and dark ... eternal tenants obey Eden ends formed founder's first step to free I saw all life fade ... merely pass away past brace presence death, carpe mortem day

I sometimes wonder how we go through difficult times and still come out of it. Most people do not have the grace to endure torments. "Dark woke me, said the sun won't come this way death seized day plus time ... Latin decree past brace presence death, carpe mortem day." only faith and God's grace could see anyone through this darkness written amazingly by you.

Your shared insights favors truth, Tonye, and admirable -- exquistely rare, a voice that guides in the whole of my penning of constant returns that was shy of a day that soon be no more as 24 little hours of resonating edges, I resolved a day's parting with a meaningful period. Thank you for the candle and aura of its light, my friend. Aloha William
