“Living the life of a paradox,
a drawer full of keys, but no locks.”

That is my favorite stanza. Beautiful piece.

Powerful work.

Dreamy and earthly, strong and gentle, all at the same time.
Gorgeously written piece!

Beautifully penned, LDF. This is an incredible write my friend. Appreciate you.

I like the angry box. You are right it is important to let out the rage, bottled up is a bomb ready to be set off. Good write Damian.

Powerful. Writing is cethartic. You nailed it.

Thanks so much for reading and your kind words, Tim. So glad you connected with the write my friend. I figured you could relate. Appreciate you.

Despite wildly different backgrounds & life stories, I somehow think you & I have similar spirits. Creation is a beautiful outlet & when we’re in pain, all we want to do is create beauty to soothe the wounds. And if you were anything like I was, secretly hoping one day you’d be famous & show those douche canoes. 😂 You, my friend, are a rockstar!

An emotional write! Well written my friend!

You’re mine, Sam. Shackles, Collar, and Leash. The whole damn package. Do you seriously think I’m letting you out of this dungeon? Get on your knees and open up. I’ve got your Sunshine Rain right here for ya like orange juice for breakfast and a whole world of wonder for you to taste and worship. Just another day in paradise, baby. You know you love it.

What is love but madness wrapped in chocolate?
A trap for the sweettoothed fool who presumes that it’s permanent.
Go on your trips Sam, leave love behind.
Take only your words and the truth….ageing,sickness,death.

Beautifully penned, Sam. A great write my friend. Appreciate you.

Funny how DK said you are locked in her dungeon when the both of you are in mine. This is a beautiful piece Sam. Midnight sun..very nice.

Wonderful work. Superb.
