Out on the rock
I spread my arms
The sea and the world
Beneath me
Urged on by cliffs
You said something
But the wind
Laughed too loud
In my ears and playfully
Hid my breath from me.
I soared, static and uplifted
And just then,
As cloud pooled at my feet
And eternity seemed
That wee bit closer
Just then as everything
Was perfect
You said again:
'I want you.'
And that was
Ecstasy.

@glen Don't underestimate ones which make people laugh. I need those to brighten my day! And I know you could write things like this... Hell, this ain't so special. Go on... Write one!!!
Amazing again, you are writing in a very sensitive way, perhaps you always do? It's lovely anyway. βΊ
@crowncottage aww. Thanks. You always say such supportive and positive things. People like you make Opuss a joy

@wolfie that's such a nice compliment, I will kid myself it's true so I can really enjoy it! π½βΊ
@Delilah (and as for writing things like this ... Just look at the feed. Even now there are pieces more original, more powerful, more emotional... But thanks for saying it... :-)
Hmm I still say that's a load of pants haha I'm not really sure. I believe in angels and demons, if you believe in a god you can't pretend there's no devil but ghosts? Hmm, not sure. Whenever I ask myself that it tends to be in the middle of the night and I don't want to say they aren't real because it's just my luck one will pop up right in front of me haha
