"I caught sight of my reflection
I caught it in the window
I saw the darkness in my heart
I saw the signs of my undoing
They had been there from the start
And the darkness still has work to do
The knotted chord's untying
The heated and the holy
Oh they're sitting there on high
So secure with everything they're buying
"In the blood of Eden lie the woman and the man
With the man in the woman and the woman in the man
In the blood of Eden lie the woman and the man
We wanted the the union oh the union of the woman, the woman and the man
My grip is surely slipping
I think I've lost my hold
Yes I think I've lost my hold
I cannot get insurance any more
They don't take credit, only gold
Is that a dagger or a crucifix I see
You hold so tightly in your hand
And all the while the distance grows between you and me
I do not understand
In the blood of Eden lie the woman and the man
With the man in the woman and the woman in the man
In the blood of Eden lie the woman and the man
We wanted the the union oh the union of the woman, the woman and the man
At my request you take me in
In that tenderness I am floating away
No certainty, nothing to rely on
Holding still for a moment
What a moment this is
Oh for a moment of forgetting
A moment of bliss
Oh....
I can hear the distant thunder
Of a million unheard souls
Of a million unheard souls
Watch each one reach for creature comfort
For the filling of their holes
In the blood of Eden lie the woman and the man
I feel the man in the woman and the woman in the man
In the blood of Eden lie the woman and the man
I feel the man in the woman and the woman in the man
In the blood of Eden we have done everything we can
In the blood of Eden, so we end as we began
With the man in the woman and the woman in the man
It was all for the union, oh the union of the woman, the woman and the man"
- Peter Gabriel - "Blood of Eden"
I guess there are some things that time can't heal.

You're right.
No matter how much we'd like, some things time can't heal..
Oh dear.
I am sorry you have to go an unhealable time.
Thanks for posting this. It was sad but I was glad to hear from you.
I'll just say, as an old lady of 60 years, time does heal some hurts, if you live long enough. Those wounds don't go away, but they sort of become part of you in an ok way; helping you enjoy the good stuff in life.
Just checking in. I tried to submit a comment a few days ago. You may have censored it. In any case, hope to hear from you soon.
I've enjoyed visiting with you online for quite a while, and though we don't know each other personally, I hate like hell to learn of your suffering.
My take on this kind of ache, is that while it doesn't really go away, it sort of becomes part of you, like a healed wound. It's still there, but after however long it takes (decades sometimes) you can breathe again without pain.
Take care, friend.
My thoughts are with you in this hard time.
Just came over to check in as I hadn't heard from you for a while. As GE said, wounds dont go away but you learn to live with them, they become a part of you rather than an envelope x
