Good day, fair Prince. Long nights and cold have I endured here in the tower. They no longer pass, those friendly voices, those noble horsemen with whom I consorted in their passing. But now thou hast called to me, and thy words are fresh and comely. How I wish for their return and your staying comfort. For the way it was, I long. And that the void were not so broad.

I figured it a love letter to someone you know and was about to suggest handwriting and sending, until the last verse.

Like it even though it preaches like the preacher it condemns.
âJesus saw redemption . . . suicide or the cleansing of sinâ interesting line
âKeep thy eyes forwardâ Thatâs âthineâ but mixing vintage is a sin

I sat in the same shelter if it's in Shenandoah National Park or near the south boundary - great country and Trail Days in Damascus, Virginia was a hoot. I remember most hearing heavy footsteps outside the tent at midnight. Good poem,nice recollections

Well not quite. Relate it to a mood or a rash, not to anorexia - that's a disease

Well put. We get pulled back to mama's knee and mama's beliefs, like a magnet too strong for reason.

If your first paragraph is correct then nothing existed before the universe. If you say no, the universe emerged; then you include whatever it emerged from in a new definition of the universe. You go beyond Stephen Hawking when he says we can never know what existed before the Bang. You say âThe properties of the Universe are what determine the Laws and Initial Conditions.â
John Fowles asks, âWhat is easier to believe? That there was always something or that there was once nothing?â Not that the easier thing to believe is more likely true, but the more reasonable thing is.
A Model is like a worldview; a framework for testing predictions, an adjustable framework. Blaise Pascal, mathematician in the seventeenth century was testing the wager: Is it reasonable to believe in God. Either God exists or he does not, and we cannot use reason to determine which alternative is true. However, our lives may be affected by the alternative we choose. Since choosing to believe that God exists may lead to greater overall happiness, and nothing is lost if we are wrong, Pascal decided it is better to accept the theistic alternative. Since then, science has revealed much. I think that between then and now, it has pulled more in the direction of god than no-god.

This leaves me wondering about several things, and not getting it. Tell me what is wrong with falling in love with a friend, one of the guys or not. Was he really a friend if he did this? What kind of judge of character are you?

The first 4 lines open a fine stage to play on. The last 2 lines wrap it up just fine. But whatever falls between needs some major tuning.
