I was rotting on the inside,
Dying like the swan,
Singing my last song,
And the leaves on the trees
Were falling, falling,
And my heart
Was failing, failing
When you came
With your kind words
Like a whispering wind,
And took my broken,
Bleeding Soul
To render it again,
Anew.
Without you
I would be crying
Like the rose that cries
Its petals upon the ground
Until I would be left naked,
Bereft and alone.
Instead I grow,
My petals unfurling slowly,
Slowly,
And gently, like the first flush
Of colour appearing
My heart starts to warm
And the colour comes back
Into my eyes.
But now you are flown away,
Borne away on wind
I was rotting on the inside,

And took my broken,
Bleeding Soul
To render it again,

I just want to say thank you to everyone who has commented on and viewed my deviations over the past two years. Obviously I've been absent for quite a while now, and during that time I think it's safe to say that my life has changed beyond recognition. I logged on to delete my account this morning, but suddenly I really missed dA... this site was such a big part of my life, and it's strange but nice to look back on it. So I'm leaving it up for the moment, but I thought I ought to say that I won't be logging on enough to reply to messages or favourites. Whenever I do see them though, they mean a lot to me, so thank you :)
There're some amazin
What kind of music inspires you? I have recently become hooked on the great Sally J Johnson, whose lyrics I find very inspiring.
The most stunning piece of music I find though is Shostakovich 10. You can really hear the loneliness, the loss, and at the very end the hope. Enchanting listening.
Sorry that I haven't been around much for the last century. It has been too long, and I apologise for that. Hopefully I will be able to find time over the Summer to log on a bit more frequently.
Ok guys, here's the short and the long of it. I'm so so so sorry I've been MIA for the last few months. If you faved my work or wrote on my profile or added deviations to yours the chances are I haven't replied and the reason for that is that I got on here for the first time in months and found I had over 10,000 messages waiting for me, so I had to be a bit ruthless to get through them all. I'm sorry! I'll bake everyone invisible cookies to make it up to you?
