Memories of a Summer in Heaven

[donzieja]

For I am but a fortunate fool; in the shadows of lost love and false hopes I dwell, but alas – I rule hypocrisy upon my own will to emerge from and let fade the dark within. In memory, she was my one rose, my single way, my only truth, my everything, and throughout the tears shed, the skin torn, and the leaves burned, I have grown. Without a doubt shall the good men of this Earth die for thy beauty; yet I, a better man shall live by thy grace. In peaceful silence I bask, though never will I forget the unending kindness with which she'd carved her name into my heart – through a kiss, innocent, time was lost and all woe was forever vanquished, and if I were to die tomorrow – nowhere would I find greater comfort than in her arms, looking into her eyes, knowing they're the last thing I'll ever see. In ways, such has already occurred; for I am no longer the same man I was that summer – yet my immortal memories still remain.

Nice,
What a way to look at the bright side of life.
Your own work ?
Well done.

Yes, my own work.

I'm glad you liked it.

Beautiful!  Loved it.

In peaceful silence I bask...

I do like this entire fragment.
I am also an author, working on several psychical themes.
