Resilient Night

Flight of the vaporous clouds, moving at speeds unfathomable— like these thoughts... entangled in dead branches longing to be free—lusting after the deep blue of the night sky— trying—flying. I flee not from my sorrows, I flee not from you, my love... I fly in these vapors, entranced by change. I believe our souls caress Transformations in every fullness and waning of the resilient night.

Entangled in dead branches for these our the thoughts of this world that are not connected to the living vine, but you my friend have seeked to be grafted into the living vine where these branches receive life from the good soil : ). Transformed into a new living spirit being a Child of God,. Love ya my friend

Transformations and thought freedom are wonderful things! I hope you are well. Our styles are so different from each other. I haven't been here in a while, but do think of your words periodically. You really have a great talent, and I hope you are enjoying every day!!! I had forgotten how much of a trip it is to read your work. It really takes me for a ride that I find difficult to explain. Something magical Laura.

I've had many, many nights like this over the past few years. It's hurt so much...yet it's strengthened me that much more. This piece is very relatable & so well expressed. Also, it's been ages & I hope you've been doing good. :) Nice to see you're still around.

Desires in the wind's pulse caught in the remorseless clutch of tree soul shadows...the pain of an unreachable horizon haunts the needs of suffocating dreams. I would rather live on a bloom of pain than the sighs and winds of memories which is what this neat poem conveys to my mind Poetess.
