She tipped the table
with a thousand lights
of all the relationships that went bad

clinging on
searching on
grasping on

to the thinest strand
of anything
far away from where she is
was

sweet
lost
confused
grasping at straws

searching for everything
anything
man
or woman

that will take her
far from where she is

It is hard to know who you are talking about young or old But there is only one answer Faith, Hope, and a belief in an all mighty God. Try it, You'll like it.

Your words hit hard for me, as right now, I'm living this. ~Powerfully said....this is a keeper, I'm saving this to my library.

Thanks Billie, I do have that faith. It is about someone else, or my first impressions, but perhaps a bit of me in there as well. I posted it, because I thought a lot of people could relate, like honeybee did.

Glad you liked it, Honeybee.
