Fair to middlin' of nowhere

my fragile
lies under layers
of thin skin
Unapparent
it hides behind
normal incognito
It's phobic undertow
pulling deep
Beneath the placid
worries wail

Heavy phrases and words. Deep is the tone. I like you like this.

Thanks Jerry, I don't much care for this aspect of myself but it does make for some writing material.

Well said, Lori!  Such much "hides behind
normal incognito" in us all.

"Unapparent
it hides"

We all seem to have innermost remorse for
some aspect of our lives, thoughts, action, inaction...

But we have friends and family to hug, and share with, and forget and forgive
even the most egregious.
So, hug and squeeze those sad regrets away,
for tomorrow is a new day!

HUGS!!
