One Word Prompt: LEAP/LONGING.
I stood at the edge of the mountain, a mind blowing view in front of me as the clouds rolled by and I could see almost everything in the distance. It was as if I’d become one with the sky, it was as if I’d reach up I would touch heaven above. Everything was so perfect yet all I could do was miss you. I screamed from atop, your name, it crashed with the mountains and valleys below and came back with the message that you were gone. All I wanted was for clouds to wrap me up and float towards you. All I wanted was to leap from mountains to mountains and somewhere in between find you. All I wanted from the wind was to carry your scent. Such massive beauty in front of me but all I could think of was you. And in that moment I swear the mountains moved… as my heart quivered in longing towards you.
This was beautifully written. Absolutely stunning!

Losing Love in Life i’ve experienced..
sad and depressing in human connection..
empty hole of comfort needing
re-connection.. no where
to find it.. whether
break up
or separation
in death.. but even
greater is losing the connection
with God as when i did and could
feel nothing of God in Nature anywhere..
i just wanted to go to the beach and hug
GOD and bring GOD back.. in fact i fell to
the ground in my back yard
and literally hugged
the grass and
the Love
of God was
no longer there
for me to feel at aLL..
my heart and blood pressure
was no longer working correctly..
ill close to death i was then..
so i just wanted to run
and run and run
until i exploded
with blood
to escape hell then..
but i was too tired to
run at all.. so i was
stuck here more…
and then i dreamed about
someway to swim off into
the ocean waves.. perhaps
at the bottom of the ocean was
God again with me.. perhaps i could
come back alive again.. but i was too
afraid as even the edge of the Gulf water
iN Summer chilled my weak body then..
and the pain from the disorder
i had was so bad then too..
looking for a tree with
a chain in a bicycle
basket where
the birds
could feast
their fill on what
was left of me.. as at
least my life would serve
some purpose then.. but the
thing is.. somehow.. i never gave up..
there was this WiLL gifted to be that was
even above aLL Faith.. Hope.. and Belief
that was extinguished out of my liFe then..
they call it the reptile brain.. same one gifted
to Dinosaurs too.. it will survive at all costs..
when all else
is gone
from life..
So sure..
the Lizard brain
saved me.. the literal
human reptile brain gifted
by God.. so whenever i see
a Chameleon change colors
i know and
feel iT iS
possible
for a human
to go
from
black hole to SUN..
once again.. Friend Zee..
thanks for yoUr inspirational
words that sparK the SpiRiT

Funny – yesterday I decided to write and post a poem influenced by this creative writing of yours. In my poem the poet yells his/her lover’s name to the uncaring wind and only gets the lonely cries of a gull in return. Everyone who commented thought the poet was intentionally calling to the gulls, and talked about how relaxing the poem was! I guess I missed – you did a such a great job of portraying the feeling! No missing here….

Hahaha, that is actually really funny…I’m sure it wasn’t your writing, everybody perceives things differently especially the poetry and of course everybody perceives at different depths as well…some might dwell deep into your words than others, it’s just varies. I don’t think you could have missed ! π

Beautiful! Your line about wanting the wind to carry that person’s scent really made me smile. There’s nothing better than catching a scent of someone you love or a fond memory associated with them.
