I have to tell you, Richard, I feel like I’ve been driven to your castle in horse and carriage, ushered out into a flourishing rose garden, and wisped up into your arms bridal style over the threshold. Take me to your bedroom and the balcony that overlooks your domain. Carry me up the winding staircase and lay me on fresh linens. Strip me naked in your ravishing furry. Take me, Richard… not as a king takes his queen, but as he takes his young mistress during a heated fit of passion inside the dark, hidden chambers where her shrill cries of mating remain dampened. Read me your sonnets when I’m strewn across your bed, obliterated. Let the finches build their nests while you play in mine. Kiss my rose and everything you see. That’s how I’ll know that you love me.

Goodness, DK 😳
Your graciously gorgeous review rivals my Sonnets in its compellingly fervent bliss, in wantoned kiss, for it’s all THIS ‘n more, but that’s what loving’s for … oh-MY!
Loving you’s what poetry was invented for … now, to make it fit the page without burning down the site!🔥
I’ve received reviews, and Reviews; yet, it’s hard to ever recall a REVIEW such as THIS!With a weak-kneed, melted into my socks … grateful thanks, Dear Poetess! ⁓ Rascal🖌

Okay, that is gut-wrenching. To lay there and live a slow death that you did not sign up for. Not right at all.
This is executed well -

Thanks for the thoughtful comment Fia.
It’s not right and it’s not wrong , it’s just the way it is.Like everything in life,even suffering is impermanent.

I’ve often felt that pain is preferable to apathy. That quiet passing out of space. This haunts & hurts. So often the case, & always hard

First the Technical: Excellent consistency with meter, beautifully executed rhyme.
Composition: Incredible depth. As Willow noted, the piece reflects a falling away, a loss of touch and intimacy with no explanation. It’s a death of sorts, and you’ve painted it perfectly. Really well done.

Great write Fia.
I think we’d agree we aren’t our bodies.
Somewhere in the spaces between our cells , our atoms, is our consciousness…but that’s not us either.
We cling to our notion of self but really are non self.Nothing.-

Thank you, Peter that is a profound statement. I believe we are more.

The Heart & Soul is everything to a person’s existence. The brain is just there to put it into words. Great piece Fia. xo

Damn, Fia. This write burns hotter than a thousand suns my friend. I’d need to build an Igloo just to cool down after reading this one. Appreciate you.

Ohhh, Dear Lady 🥀
You must keep mindful, waiting at that window ~ whispers light certain kinds of flames, you know.
So sweet, your efulgent encouragements, Adira; surely, a humble bard (such as I) would never expect to outshine those many grateful fellows in your life who’ve come to adore you … I’m sooo pleasantly, sooo sumptuously surprised!
Love your beguiling sense-of-humor, and your most lovely compliment. ; )
Thank you ever-so warmly, Adira! ⁓ Richard🖌
