Silent language of grief....Magpie tales # 100


Weighed down
held under
I gasp
but there isn't any air
only bubbles rising
pretending
 life
ah, we begin in salt...
and now I taste it again
 tears
that drown me

  3. Your heart-felt sadness pulls me in---shoulder here for shedding your tears on, arms to wrap around you and share your pain, and an apron to dry some of your tears with. Tightest of hugs, bushels of love, and Blessed Be
