SOMETHING STRANGE

SOMETHING STRANGE

something strange

has taken away

my ground

my heart beats slowly

now

my spirit wills

nothing more

my dreams have grown cold

my visions unclear

my hopes languish

in fantasy’s failure

lost

in a mist colorless

i wander aimlessly

in disillusion and fear

something strange is coming

this way

something strange

has taken hold of me

something stranely familiar

is comng my way

Life and death are old

Life and death are old friends, my dear Longo. We've lived and passed away like a cloud on a sunny day since before the dawning of time. We should be used to it by now. Hahaha! Memories. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=s96NZoeDs68 inside this memory I carry we exist spellbound heroes filled with the breath of longing, empty shells forever homeward bound incarnations, mewing with light Love to you and Ann, Anna & Barry "There is a kind of mysticism to writing." ~ Irvine Welsh

Longo dearest of friends here

Your write touches my soul and Anna's song was beautiful of Barbara Streisand's rendition. First time I heard that one done with a different artist. These words to share with you my friend: Another night is over Another day is dawning All alone with the memory with the dance in the sun A new day has begun She sang it so beautiful and thinking of you with much love and feelings as I wish I could be there for you in person. So very glad I met you for you are the one and only Longo Maestro. Much love and hugs going to you right now Love Mona xoxoxo
