No, amazed is indeed not the word I'm seeking, but it seems close enough for all intents and purposes.
Astounded seems better. I just rent my armour for a person, and showed them the most tender lethal points in my spiritual self... And in response, he did the same.
And suddenly, the weak and vulnerable points are no longer. There is no armour, but there is something else.
Something spectacular.
I have two songs this day. The Fountain of Lamneth and Tears, both by Rush.
I still love Rush. Rush is still God on Drums, with Geddy Lee on bass and Alex Lifeson on guitar.
Don't expect to find Tears. Don't expect the truth to come out and reach for you. You have to reach for the truth.
Once again, I'm prepared to share myself.
