I pretend, even with you
that everything is ok.
That I am a survivor with heart,
one that can continue to love
and enjoy what comes before me.

But truth breaks through
every now and then,
with held back tears and a scratchy voice
and time's passing a heavy weight
to carry and bear.

Giving up seeming the best option
when I wear the words that stain me,
when even bleaching can't take away
those hurts,
without leaving a sting.

You read into me what you wish,
and what I allow between the lines
is left up to your imagination.

It is my escape into a world
where thoughts are allowed
and my senses have closure
even if my passion...
has yet to be seen.

Excellent thought-provoking write Maureen.
I so much enjoy your words.

I found there lives within me..
An invincible summer.

Every day can be a challenge, even more when you kid yourself, like me signing up for calculus.  Now teach me how to survive that pretty lady and I be most happy.  Between the lines and on the lines you write good.  Enjoyed

The Menace part is Sunshine picking on poor little me (Gloom too, and he’s suppose to be my friend), but then agin I do get in trouble a fair bit.

Your poetry has always reminded me of reading someone's personal diary.  It is always intimate and revealing a lovely heart.  *hugs*...jo

A personal poem of the underlying hurt within us all, if only people would look and see the cause and effect in life, enjoyed the way you handled the subject, sad for the subject matter M...thank you..

oh lady, you do write the very heart of me as well......the resignation of this hurts, but the hope ...the hope is still there
