So Alive
eternal
and beautiful
as we move
together
in the night
this night
forever
.
Inanimate
transient
still beautiful
still together
in the day
this day
forever
.
arms raised
warmth
as she shines
first towards
then inside
me
forever
.
yet tell me now, this forever… when will it begin?
will it remain after our final breath?
will it transcend the logic of our presence?
tell me now, what is this it… and can she even be stopped?
Can she see and breath in the answer?
Or is she the answer?
This forever began when it ended within her mind…
.
Let it end I say,
for these dreams of eternity
Are simply dreams.
When we wake we find
life is finite.
and she holds it
as she holds everything
.
What is it?
Who is she?
Or should I say He?
The ending of forever
.
Will we ever know what “it” is….or shall we keep faith and hope in our hearts to believe…I believe in forever….
such a beautiful piece….winding and twisting….asking and answering…quite gifted…
thank you summer… it is a journey, that’s for sure. I am beginning to be fascinated by “it” we use the word so often and so often it is describing emotions, the unknown, life, wonderment… and it is so small… yet so profound… I tried to replace it to expand the piece and thats when I focused on it… because it could not be removed… thank you for seeing and being 🙂
I believe it remains. I believe it transends. But then I don’t know how to believe, or what IT is either, once I start trying to think.
This brings tears to my eyes. Very beautiful. It has captured me on a day already wistful that I have no words for but have had tears for.
The forever, the seen and felt/the unseen and eternal/ the always and never…how can I name it? There is so much knowing in your words, and as much wondering. In your wondering, I hear your knowing. Even in my own not understanding, I understand and know.

Pearl… your words touch me… your tears make my heart wonder and your thoughts make my soul speak… you know more than you think and you see and feel more that you know… so which is more profound? I could not begin to know what you feel, only that I do understand the underlying sadness and I feel the light despite the dark… you are an amazing light in your own right… it shines all the way to me. Isn’t it amazing how we can not see it for ourselves? But I believe it is always for others my friend… always
Beautiful, enreal…just beautiful.
🙂 thank you Theresa 🙂
Lovely. All good questions, as usual, my friend… let me know if It ever lets you find the answers… 😉
I like to personify “It” and all that goes along with It was well…
Sam! so nice to hear your voice… I will find you personally if I ever get my answers… thank you
A beautiful Word Picture with “It” painted between Eternity and the “End of Forever”. A landscape of Mystery with Forever on the horizon.
very clever my friend… I appreciate the way you see the words and interpret them. very clever indeed
The title itself was genius.
Thank you my friend
