Everything Has Only Just Begun
"Nothing truly ends—souls shine eternal, and love paints the light that never fades your contour" CJB

Everything Has Only Just Begun!
I want to start this prose with a scream—WHY!?
WHY do things end when they feel like they've only just begun?
It feels that way when a star,
whose light shone so brilliantly,
fades from sight.
A light so stunning it defied logic—
because you couldn’t look away!
Instead of being blinded, you were dazzled....
....Dazzled by the brilliance of an artist,
One who could bend

A star who'd shape the contour of a role with an energy only HIS soul could define.
This light has a name:
"Gene Hackman"
RIP.
🫸 WAIT 🫷
The story doesn’t end here! It never does.
That desperate cry of “WHY?”—why do things end just as they feel like they’ve begun?—has an answer.
Because they haven’t ended!
Because a soul is eternal!
Because light is energy that never dies!
So please—dry those cries. Look up to the skies.
The stars whisper what your heart already knows:
Everything you seek is never truly gone....
And LOVE? You know what it’s there for, don't you?
It’s the paint that reveals your soul’s eternal contour.
THIS is not the end.
Everything has only just begun!
And if you ever doubt it...
Look up, feel the sun. ☀️
When you hear sad news like this, for me there is no better way to react than with a creation. In this case a poem, using the #vss365 daily prompt word: CONTOUR
Creating is so powerful. It allows you to search inside and express yourself artistically without judgement and work it into something that never existed before---isn't that AMAZING!?
Gene will be missed but he leaves a wonderful light for us to still enjoy.
