drifting, bathed in tears
ghostly presence harrowing
dreamtime life endeared
lustful tongue salted burning
waking lonely, aged by years

November : 🍂

Watching leaves falling,
Lost love’s embers, … remembered-
First one, … another ~

wilting reveries
love lies bleeding on the vine
heartache harrowing
soulbound silver cords combined
star-crossed lovers knot entwined

-
your frail face
fades inside the mirror,
slick entrail tears
spill past the glass,
a sorrow which will not still

we pale creatures cry,
echoes without end
for this love,
its reveries,
its endless afflictions.

Did you know?

In the Victorian era, there were not only mail-order brides, but also mail-order husbands.

Some women living on the American frontier, placed advertisements seeking industrious and respectable men willing to marry and help manage farms or properties.

#Victorian #history

It shows a frontier woman standing alone in a field, while holding a basket.

Did you know they actually filmed it in the springtime? The crew tossed around a bunch of dead leaves to make it look like Fall.
