Once I loved the sound of your voice, but
your words have become meaningless
As you venture into a state that leaves me,
your companion, at a loss as to what to
Think, to do, if ever again I should link my
heart and soul and body to one like you.
Your honey words no longer melt in my ears
though, surely, they become fainter as you
Move toward a land that means a life and
hope beyond what I could ever give you.
Go then, seek your New World and a god
whose grip on you eclipses my paltry love.
Beautiful and profound words Sir CoCo.
You always manage to touch my heart.

Peace and blessings, dear sparrowdown!

There is a raw intensity to your cry that any heart would find impossible to squelch and not express.
Beautiful. Painful. Expresses the terrible, unbridgable gap.... :(
Thanks so much, Steve and Muddy Waters.
The bitter irony is that it was I who left behind my "companion" in order seek a god not known by my forebears and his promised "New World." I have such mixed emotions now about my preaching to kith and kin, those who listened to the "honey words" that assured that there was, truly, a land of milk and honey that awaited us all.
They seem content in their world of fantasy . . .
And me -- ?
Love,
CoCo
Beautiful. I had to read it a couple of times. Each time had more meaning than the last.
