The Crowd Has Spoken

From my Raven Collection

The Crowd Has Spoken

Sometimes I want to call you
but I know in my heart
you're not here
Iโ€™m sorry you had to let go
Iโ€™m sorry we had to say goodbye
one more embrace
one more thing to say?
Iโ€™d truly give anything
to hear your voice today
back in time I saw your smile
you told me I was loved
you told me, you were proud

yet, today...
ย 
this room has no crowd.

Strong words, gently said. The regret, the hindsight and the wisdom in it, is all too palpable. This is a beautiful piece, Shirley. โค๏ธ๐Ÿ–Š๏ธ๐ŸŒป๐ŸŒบ

There's absolutely humanity here.
To me, I count humanity as brokenness.
God will only carry you so far.
Were as the sun takes you right into
It's heart.

Thank you dearest Rory, I don't believe in any God, but you are absolutely right about the sun, even if it shines for a moment it can take us places we never thought possible. Thank you dear friend. ๐ŸŒน
