dim winter.

[Raz]

I'm so ugly in this light.
Winter brings with it such unhappy truths;

Time does not heal all wounds, it just hides them beneath layers of skin that any razor can bring to the surface. Isolation is my Siberia, and the snows build up higher and higher outside the walls of this fragile little hut until it's only the ice that keeps it all together. It's only ice.

The worst part of that is it doesn't keep me in darkness, it keeps me in the dim shades of a 6-month dusk. It keeps every boundary visible and the door is right there in front of me but too cold to touch. My breath is hanging in the air like a mystery guest, but it too is gone as soon as it has the chance. Even air leaves me when I get like this.

Even air leaves me.

wow hun...for a short peice of prose it certianly had an affect on me. i really like the way youve been descriptive in your sentences your choice of words and flow is excellent

Raz I found this very powerful, great piece. It kind of 'hurt' to read it, take that as a compliment, I haven't read too many things recently that have had that impact.

very honest work again there my friend. you seem to have a knack of finding ways to express things that most of us supress.

This is absolutely chilling. I love what you have created..such a subtle, beautiful etheral group of images that sing together, of times we have all known.
This was a huge achievement.

I've always felt a certain sadness and feeling of being "unearthed" as winter sets in but never been able to put it into words. This is perfect!
