~*~*~*~


You speak to me wordlessly as I watch you move past, hand on the hilt of your sword. I hear anger in your stride, in the way you won’t meet my eyes. I hear all the things I wouldn’t let you say, when you so bravely offered me your heart.


You pass, extending neither look nor greeting, a brave vision in leather and velvet, and you’re speaking to me. I hear the hurt rolling off you and I die, breath by restless breath, in knowing I am the one.


I caused this silent voicing.


I die, breath by restless breath.

I like how this can be read on both levels. I did both, and am not sure which I prefer.

Love your icon, btw.

Thank you! I wrote it as V/S but it ended up to my mind, sounding more like A/B.

Love your icon, btw.

Thanks! I made it by accident playing around with PSP. I've several more if you're interested in checking them out, they're just sitting around not being used. ;)

Sorry it's taken me so long to rely - busy time of year! If it's not a pain, when you get a chance I'd love to see your accidental icons. The best discoveries are unintentional.

No problem, I've posted the icons temporarily to my LJ scrapbook
here (http://pics.livejournal.com/archet/gallery/00009a04)
Let me know if any strike your fancy, take as many as you'd like, I'm not doing anything with them. ;)

They're lovely! I saved the first two and the first red/orange one in the last row. Thank you so much. When I use them, I'll credit, of course. I like the way they blur at the edges - it meshes well with the whole look.

Thanks! I'm glad you found some that you wanted to use...I wish I could say I planned them meticulously, but in PSP I just applied some colors or and image to a page and hit the Kaleidoscope option and it arranges them into patterns...I'm sure I'll end up with tons, it's quite addictive. ;)

Gorgeous! I think, because that's where my head is right now, this works for me as Aragorn/Boromir--but I can see Viggo/Sean as well.

And that last line is wonderful--so sad, though!

Thank you so much...I had a very specific image of Viggo watching Sean, dressed in Boromir's costume, as he headed toward the set, or what not...but by the end to me it sounded more A/B-ish.

And that last line is wonderful--so sad, though!

I'm happy you liked that one best, it's my favorite too, though sad...was having a RL angst moment and it got translated into a drabble, ;)

*wails*

This is so perfect, so sad, on /all/ levels.

*cuddles you* I'm so glad you liked this, even though it is rather ouchy. In my head this was V/S but on the page it reads more A/B to me...either way, I love the idea of Viggo and/or Aragorn being able to 'read' Sean/Boromir in this way. ;)

Your wonderful drabble's (?) are like poetry. Short and full of expression, and you are writing them one by one, equally good.
Thank you.

[archet.livejournal.com]

Thank you! I'm glad that you're enjoying them, thanks for letting me know, ;)

...definitely A/B in my book. The other two talk. *g*

[archet.livejournal.com]

*g* Hello there! Yeah, the other two talk, these two just angst together beautifully like the stubborn men that they are.. ;)

[poutpout.livejournal.com]

in knowing I am the one
simply beautiful!!!

Thank you! ;)
