My hurt.
I feel
thatdrifting
of my nail...

My hurt.
I'm real.
thatdrifting
thoughtofsnail...

My burn.
I realize
that I
decide,
I never
really
realized-
I am halfway
actualized....


as these thoughts of me
beat through--
little fists of rage
broken tiles of age
pounding for
the very grout of you...
as these thoughts of us
we dig
little gifts of us we lift
showing worms beneath us all?
to think, to dream we once stood tall.


in spite of you?
yeah....?

(in spite of you)

In spite of anyone or anything else... We always have our own inner strength, don't we?  You've got it, serene one...

Real raw writing, Karen! Grabbed me in the solar plexus--and in my heart. You can never lose the you of you--so you're never really alone in this life! You have your best friend with you wherever you may go! ---Take good care of her--she's special!

Healing hugs,
EA

serenity,
You turned over a rock and hit a homerun.

serenity--The scratch of life is one way to feel the real...but in you I see it strong and true under the skin, in heart.
