I remember my sadness through

This quill is calling out to you!
Ink brighter than skies cold blue
Even in my darkest desired silence.
Metronome paced sands trickle steadily into
sorrow's timepiece; my glass prison cells view

And in the wake of saddest Decembers haze
Even though I'm frozen in most ways 
I still desire evermore to seek your guidance.
When my words break softly under your gaze
Have I finally figured out that love is still a maze?

Penned, buy a candle light or two
Because it's my favorite color, too
Your substance; it becomes my covering subsidence.
Measuring miseries malignant moments of magnitude
It has left me wounded with no concept, anymore of gratitude
 
In the ink wells now, just waterfalls; I remember my sadness through
But within every empty broken heart drop; I'll always wish for amnesia with regards to you!

I could really feel this one, and your powerful ending was not overlooked "But within every empty broken heart drop; I'll always wish for amnesia with regards to you!" deep metaphor, that I never saw before now...much love, <3 hugs, dear friend

I HATE feeling deep sadness like I have the last few weeks! I naively hoped that this kind of emotional loss would not visit me again in whats left of my life. I know that it needs time to process through me. It can't be forced, I will rise pasted it, and I will write about it as much as I need to. Thank you for being a friend Paige!! For looking to the beauty that is acknowledging feelings. Regards A.S.
