Champagne nights
Fool their prisoners.
They die, bleeding,
Drinking salty lies
From a poisoned glass
Of broken desire.
*
The soft kiss
Of a young morning…
Or dazzle of a star
In a velvet sky
Heals the naked heart
Waking it to joy
And eternity’s laughter.
Press a button or two to share... go on, make my day :)

That’s pretty much it.
“The Lord giveth and the Lord taketh away…Blessed be the name of the Lord.” I was taught that long, long ago.
