Laboring a broken heart.
Overwhelmed by the lack of optomism,
saddened by the urge to let go.
Torn between who I am, and who I want to be.


   Unknown Futures,
unforgettable pasts.
      Marching forward,
to other destinations, more productive journies.

Looking deep within,
overwhelmed with fear.
Salty grains of foreclosure,
tingling in these open wounds.

   Uncommon realities,
undeniable love.
     Marching provocatively,
to other beats, the drum silent,

Left behind with tears in these hazel eyes,
oblivious to the hurt they with stand.
Saddened by our letting go,
tainted with forever so.

You encapture life Kelly

But all of your words could be linked to the frustration of someone of any age

Who wants a life, and not what is delivered to them

Excellent

not tainted in the least, but more refined, to life...it is those who suffer the greatest who are given the light of perception, courage, strength....

Hugs and thank you for an amazing write.
