It is a silence.
It is a grey-ness.
In between the noise of the finale
And the awaited epilogue.

In between the great black;
all comsuming grief
And the untouched white, the snow.
Virtue and purity.

Waiting for the drop of blood
to touch it.
Waiting for your words to
break the silence.

I hang in the silence and grey,
Waiting for you; my drop of blood.

Wow lynze this is really great, the snow waiting for drop of blood! I think it must be really emotional too, to write? Actually made me think of this, something like 'Between idea and reality, the motion and the act, falls the shadow.' from a poem 'hollow man' or somthin ... anyway this is better ;) K xx

The pacing is very good - the way you capture a moment and the silence between things. Rob
