No. It's not a simple life. There is no parity. There is no rule, no measured speak... and I've no clarity. Everything of hurt, entwines... Each raw nerve, touches the other. Every hurt is amplified and pride of cry is smothered. All my pain and teeth in clench, every restless moment spent... every footstep towards the door and every footfall back for more - Oh damn my life! Be it undone... I rock myself to sleep... pounding head against the wall to prove I can still weep. I have to let it go, I know... I must let this be. Brave a trail of tears again - to journey on my blistered feet. Yet angels' choir of memory, harmony of seraphim, bewitchment of a blasphemy oh may I dream? please... dream of him? |

This is beautiful wording: "I have to let it go, I know... I must let this be. Brave a trail of tears again - to journey on my blistered feet. Yet angels' choir of memory, harmony of seraphim, bewitchment of a blasphemy oh may I dream? please... dream of him?" What is that you express in your eyes? It seems to me more than all the words I have read in my life. Walt Whitman |

this is beautiful, and i really, truly mean that in its unadorned sense i.e., beautiful without the quotation marks... wow, when i read a poem like this i am totally humbled. its really amazing, and what i find really great about it is your allusion to paradox (i think anyway? hahahah) i.e. everything of hurt entwines/each raw nerve touches the other...but i think one of the greatest lines is "every foostep towards the door and every footfall back for more" I honestly thought your poem was great look forward to reading some more. |

Your words always seem to convey the feelings with such power. Take care!!! "The heart and soul have no illusion of boundries when friendship is the quest" ~ My Angel. |

one word describes this piece of poetry INCREDIBLE!!!!!!!!! I have to let it go, I know... I must let this be. Brave a trail of tears again - to journey on my blistered feet. If we can do this.....how wonderful it would be! I loved it.....every word! Thank you! |
