An intriguing write, I wondered if it was very clever, I wasn’t sure if I should feel sorry.

To withhold the pain
You so much crave

There was a kind of ache to it and I couldn’t work out whose.

Skylight
sylviasearcher said:

The first time I read it, I read it like a metaphor, the skylight, the window to...
The unfathomable, beautiful, dark, exciting, everything and nothing.

Like taking a journey through consciousness.

And I do love the starlit sky.

So after reading the comments I read it and wondered of the window being the thing that shapes perception and makes it all the things it could become. In an endless kind of way.

And then I wondered of that feeling you get when you look up on a clear night. It is just an indescribable feeling. No mirrors or windows. Just straight to the soul.

It was gentle and reached out to me.

The further we look into the night the more profound our dreams become. Good one Neville.

The first stanza grabs you, and pulls you along the rest of the pleasant ride.
I enjoyed the read, Nev.

Ah a quiet view of night\'s allure.Sky mapped with stars gives pen all it needs and your lines add the mystery of dreams behind windows - - good read Nev - - poets have incurably curious minds and closed doors or curtained windows do the same for me.

The good ole\' dusty trail and the song of passing that comes with it. May you enjoy your time away sir. Hopefully it\'s for a benevolent purpose.

When I Was Dead
dusk arising said:

Metaphor for drowning in a relationship? only to find oneself washed limp into the harbour - a place where people begin and end their relationships with the ocean. A fine place to begin to live again.

Mourning Song
dusk arising said:

Mountains of passion fade to calm once the crashing waves finally stop.

Would be appropriate to mourn such passing.

Short, sweet with amazing depth in today\'s write from you N.

But who can choose between ocean and mountain?

I was just reviewing a chapter in my book and it was kind of having both. Mountain and ocean...

Maybe I’ll share it...

Good metaphorical write, those white horses can bring hope.

When I Was Dead
Nicholas Browning said:

For some reason I thought of the Four Horsemen when I read this. Getting dragged by them beneath the waves would be a frightening thing indeed.

When I Was Dead
Michael Edwards said:

Well I\'m a realist so I read it as it is written - a life lost at sea and washed ashore. The only hesitation I have is the word \'exhausted\' in the penultimate stanza. A fine write Neville.

When I Was Dead
sylviasearcher said:

It reminded me a little of the notion of acceptance and commitment therapy, I quite liked the idea of accepting the wild horses escorting me, seemed a little humbling maybe.

Maybe maya needs some white horses!

When I Was Dead
Fay Slimm. said:

A scare of a read yet phrased with great metaphor - - deadness which calls for a lively escort of salty white horses draws me back to the times I have, watching, wondered what lies right below........a bleak but compelling read Nev.
