The day arrived, when myriad teary rivers flow and the muted wind faintly died in his tears–an altar for the beloved one's departure, for sister-hood is no more, for her to adore! while pangs the beating world in a lamenting voice;their remembering loss of the 'one' they embrace most and when the crepuscule came like a phantom, the mournful, gathered birds swiftly flew in gloom. Nithin Purple

She wasn’t broken. She was made up of a thousand tiny little cracks. She was always trying to keep herself glued together. But it was hard, she felt too much. No matter what she did, her emotions seeped through, sometimes in drips, other times in floods, She felt everything, the heaviness of the clouds right before rain, the rush of the subway cars as they left the station, the feeling of goodbye as she watched someone walk away, wondering if it was the last time she would see them, the feeling of a kiss lingering on her cheek for hours. She felt the loneliness of the sun as it hung in the sky, shedding light on the day, without companion. And she longed to give as much as the sun. If she could brighten someone’s day, bestow warmth were there was cold, make someone smile, give someone hope, then for a minute, an hour, maybe even a day, the cracks would fill with loveand the pain would become only a voice, reminding her that her pain was important. She knew how fragile life was, how hard, and how precious. She wanted to feel it all. . Jacqueline Simon Gunn

Charles Bukowski

When Love Was NewWhen love was newand life was young, and once we walkedin gracious sun, I never dreamt of darker days, or feared that fate had cruel ways. When life was strongand love was free, and time was onceeternity -we never planned for more or less, nor stopped to think we should digress. When love was youngand life was new, and everythingwas once our due, I never doubted what I owned, nor knew the cost was merely loaned. Now love is triedand life is old, and still my feetdrag down the road -not knowing where it all has gone, nor how much more it still goes on. But life grows newand love gets old, and this tired heartstays off the cold -not caring it compares with fools, nor wise enough to fear the rules.- Drea Damara . Drea Damara
