First, here is the soliloquy:
Love's Rush(Soliloquy)
To fall asleep wrapped in your arms while stars keep watch like sentinels in the night...the moon is lit and hung in the tree tops with care and a blanket of stars covers the earth as your love covers me whole...into your eyes like windows I can see what lay beyond in the fields of vast emotion dried grasses parched in need of rain to fill them up and make them whole again. Sustaining nourishment as love quenches and fuels the fires within. Your touch is reminiscent of the sun, gentle waves of pleasant distraction warming my skin upon which your fingers brush leaving traces likes ripples on a pond behind to follow one after another after another...your breath a zephyr, feathers tingling my skin sending endless shivers as your words whisper in my ear like the sound of the wind in the eves on a still night...your smile like the sun brightens my day sending rays of happiness that cant be contained like a river rushing over a precipice falling water cascades crashing below a momentous rush like your love swallowing me whole taking me down to depths unknown...a symbol of love a circle bound with no end like the ocean her tides never cease may this love grow stronger not crumble like a mountain sending itself hurling into the sea with the waves that never end and such is the lesson the mere existence of why we must never give up surely as the seasons turn and the rain falls and the sun shines bright warming earth tending it as a child to grow this nourishment for that which share as the air it breathes new life and new hope and sends out love to find its way into another’s arms to have and hold even as the subtraction of miles draws them together in hope like the spring they shall not part but grow and form new life ...such is the hope of love....
Je T'aime
(and to think I wrote this at 2:30 am hehe trying not to fall asleep!)
Next, here is a touching poem that Rayn wrote after the death of her son:
Ethan:
You were born the day I met you
I saw your face and knew love
No cries heard, tiny lungs struggle for air
If only for a minute I held you, our bond was formed
And I cried
Taken from my arms gods in white coats
Tubes and wires run from you like snakes
A machine to feed you air
As you lay in your acrylic home
And I cried
Placed in my arms fingers touch new skin beneath wires
So strong! So strong you are as you fight for life!
So weak unable to drink of my breasts
My heart breaks for you
And I cry
Wires removed replaced by medications SO much medication
Your heart beats a heavy load yet you fight
You come home to my arms though not for long
Lie by your side, hold you close, and partake of your smell
And I cry
Gone from your home to this industrial place with gods in white coats
Fear rides in waves threatening to consume
Whispered words of encouragement, love and strength in your tiny ear
They take you, you sleep
And I cry
Waiting, long waiting torture black rimmed eyes burn
Awakened snakes again cover your frail body
Monitors beep and keep vigil day and night
Time passes, things are not as they seem
And I cry
Magick created healing begins
You struggle and fight surprising all
By your side I stand like a pillar beaten by waves
Home again to my arms
And I cry
Your smile, your laugh, you bring love
So beautiful, an angel who touches everyone ever met
A ray of sunshine that warms on a cold day
The essence of life on a tumultuous journey
And I cry
You can’t drink, your chest tucks
Your lungs struggle for air through pooled fluid
The dark and rain and wind lash
Once again snakes cover your body invading your mouth
And I cry
Day and night by your side
You hear the songs I sing and the strength in my voice
Your struggle continues your heart grows weary
Your lungs can't find air to breathe
And I cry
Days turned into weeks, weeks turned into months
Passing expectation you cling to this tiny thread of life
So strong, so brave, so small...
I try to be strong willing to die if you would live
And I cry
Harsh ringing, bright sun, a guiding rainbow your song plays
Rushing fast, fear coursing through my veins
Like the drugs that have you trapped in your mind
Your body grows weary broken
And I cry
Your chest raw, your body limp, heart beat slowing
My Angel boy in my arms our spirits merge then part
I scream forever inside tears falling on you
You gasp all breath gone angels come to take you home now you can fly...
And I cry
For my baby Ethan Bunny, mommy loves you forever...2-5-02
