Away


It is a warm evening with Yui's soft and powerful tones drifting over the perfume of the flowers fragrant and yet subtle, that adorn the table where we just ate. The dinnerware is cleaned and our week-end bags are packed.
We both have many reasons to cry but so many more reasons to smile and the moment arrives when I need to open my heart to her because she's already deep inside there and knows when it becomes heavy and burdened. So delicately she peeks in through the windows of my soul and softly asks me what's wrong.
A small gift I offer to let her know just how much she means to me and very often we can find those special things about others when we take the time to explore and look to ourselves and our own feelings in a quiet and solitary place.
I can't tell you all everything because I failed my degree in omnipotence.
A soft moment and she whispers in my ear.
She gave to me a smile and I have not worn one this large for some time.
Stop reading this and go off and explore the world but before you do, explore yourself. What you think is in there may not be what actually is inside. In play we adopt the roles of our heroes and role models and perhaps when play is over we forget to remove the character from our true self. Sometimes our own eyes would deceive us should we look to the reflections of ourselves. Distorted amusement park mirrors and insane laughing clowns haunt dreams where we place the contents of our beating hearts on to display tables for public consumption.
Who do you think you are?

Did you stop reading yet?
I am going to stop writing on this blog for a little while.
I have a personal project that I wish to chase and chase it I will. Beyond green hills and up into blue horizons. I will aim for the moon and if I miss? Then what matter? Because I will still be up there amongst the stars.
To the North fireworks explode across the night sky in crimson cascades and are reflected upon the smiling faces of those who gaze up in admiration. Warm hands gentle upon my shoulders fall. The delicate caress becomes the soft massaging, I close my eyes and I realize that it is time to close my computer.

Take care of yourself everyone.
Until next time!

  1. You have written a beautiful image of your heart, little one. How can anyone have a negative thought about your relationship with Hitomi when it produces such a bounty of love.

    love, skip

  2. Thank you Uncle Skip

    I was the one hidden by shadows and did not realize it. I throw everyone into the light and forgot to leave the darkness myself.

    I didn't see the sun, the winds blew cold and I cannot even wonder what was wrong until Hitomi's hand pulled me out.
