Long Overdue Bent over in ragged thought rereading to understand this maze of mental hopping as I stand a wallflower to the knowledge of... Lost in second impressions vision tainted, colors leaving run-on effects as eyes see uneven blending uninspired by another's words... I stand on record, breaking line after line, challenged by years of giving and fantasy living. A poet-not, but one who feels, listens, seeks to balance a life turned upside down... At a loss for why troubled turns have overlapped and folded upon myself sometimes bringing me to knees too worn to hold me up... wondering where my sister is at this moment of need~~ M "Love is not blind - It sees more and not less, but because it sees more, it is willing to see less." |

Beautiful poem-- I especially liked: "as I stand a wallflower to the knowledge of..." I'm not sure why, but the elipsis there made that line really powerful for me.  ~*Krista Lee Knutson*~ |

Dear Nakdthoughts, Thanks for your honesty. I was more struck by the quot at the close of the page by Will Moss. I would change the ending in this quot. "Love is not blind. It sees more and not less, but because it sees more, it is willing to close the mouth on the wrong!" |

Deeply moving poem. So sorry you feel overwhelmed. I too have been at the place of on your knees but they cannot hold you up. It sounds like you have lost a sister or she has been out of your life for too long and yet you need her. Whatever your situation, I pray you find peace AND strength. Blessings, Sheri Adams Jesus lives in my heart! He can in yours too!!! |
