I Give Up

I give up
I concede
what is
the point
any way
memories
just cut
and make
you bleed
hello was
just a
simple seed
who knew
where it
all would lead
a starving soul
you could
not feed
my hunger
too big
for your need
what first
looks like
a flower
becomes a weed

Perhaps the weed was disguised as a flower. I love this, Lady.

You could hurt me with your bare hands. You could hurt me using the sharp edge of what you say. JEWEL

Powerful...as always Helen.

Of course weeds have the inherent beauty of their own nature. We provid the label.

Your words are always deeply beautiful Helen.

Giving up is easy, it’s not starting again that’s the killer.

Another good read.
