Meet you on the other side by kali66

Meet you on the other side

I found a note on Halil's desk today, I must have looked at all the stuff there a dozen times and didnt notice it
it read "I'm sorry, I just cant do it anymore"

and he gave us his internet passwords, like an entry pass into his life, unfortunately he didn't say what each one was for so we have a mystery to solve.

I've always loved this song by David Gray, now I dissolve into a puddle of tears when I hear it

"The Other Side"

Meet me on the other side, meet me on the other side
I'll see you on the other side, see you on the other side

Honey now if I'm honest, I still don't know what love is
Another mirage folds into the haze of time recalled
And now the floodgates cannot hold
All my sorrow all my rage
A tear that falls on every page

Meet me on the other side, meet me on the other side
Maybe I oughta mention, was never my intention
To harm you or your kin, are you so scared to look within
The ghosts are crawling on our skin
We may race and we may run
We'll not undo what has been done
Or change the moment when it's gone
Meet me on the other side, meet me on the other side
I'll see you on the other side, see you on the other side
I know it would be outrageous
To come on all courageous
And offer you my hand
To pull you up on to dry land
When all I got is sinking sand
That trick ain't worth the time it buys
I'm sick of hearing my own lies
And love's a raven when it flies

Meet me on the other side, meet me on the other side
I'll see you on the other side, see you on the other side
Honey now if I'm honest, I still don't know what love is
Well, now I have tears in my eyes too, Kali. That must have been extremely difficult to notice it now. It's good to know he was thinking of you and took the time to say he's sorry.

Oh, I love the image. the soft focus and the implication of communicating from beyond.
February 21st, 2015  
cool..
February 21st, 2015  
a tough journey for you to go on, Kali.
February 21st, 2015  
Oh, if you could just 'pull him up on the dry land'. So painful, I can feel your sadness, Kali. Looking at your image, I can feel the longing, to hold him, touch him, one more time.
February 21st, 2015  
Wow. Kali. The photo, the narrative, the song. Crying. And hoping for peace for you. Virtual hugs can't do anything but I'm sending them.
February 21st, 2015  
@darylo yes they can, never underestimate the power of virtual hugs, thankyou my friend
February 21st, 2015  
What an incredibly moving and emotional part of your life that you are sharing. Your strength is amazing. The image you have posted is amazing and so heart felt. Kia Kaha Kali.
February 21st, 2015  
its never ending is it? just when we start to breath a little bit better something else socks us in the gut... my heart, what remains, goes out to you...
February 21st, 2015  
@bill_fe yes that was something I was pretty sad about, so happy in a way to hear those few little words
February 21st, 2015  
Love that song too, there's a song i can't listen to...thank you for sharing in such dark times
February 21st, 2015  
So sorry about what you are going through Kali....this is a wonderful diptych to express your emotions.
February 21st, 2015  
I believe the virtual hugs too. we are all connected in the space of multi dimensions.
February 21st, 2015  
Big hugs Karlene, I cannot read the words right now through tears but I will get there
February 21st, 2015  
beautifully done. Hugs and prayers.
February 22nd, 2015

These pictures are beautiful and sad, like the story. This must be so hard for you.
February 22nd, 2015  
@kali66 okay, here's a song for you (from jason molina, of course):
'It's Easier Now' https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5OCQqAPTSGc
It's gut wrenching, though....
February 23rd, 2015  
I feel the pain Kali. I know the feeling of finding these words... love and hugs to you.
Will share with you a song i composed.
" Sometimes I am looking for you; sometimes a tear comes down to meet you. Sometimes a fleeting smile feels you, and sits upon my lips."
February 24th, 2015  
A very touching image.
February 24th, 2015  
@amrita21 I would love to hear you sing that Amrita :) thankyou
February 24th, 2015  
@kevinmckay thanks to you Kevin, I feel you know the territory and that makes your comments even more helpful
February 24th, 2015  
I don't think I can imagine what you are going through, but there has too many "premature" deaths around me in the past year. There is loss and mourning, and fear of the unknown. I am so glad that you can use your awesome photography skills to work through this. Your images are touching and poignant!
February 27th, 2015  
@blueberry1222 thx for the song, a poet indeed
February 27th, 2015  
@transatlantic99 so common, I had no idea how much so until now and everybody has a suicide story to tell it seems
February 27th, 2015  
Pam
I love that song. Powerful images. I am sorry for your loss.
