stuck way down deep
thoroughly permeated
into every crook and cranny lest it
be dislodged
there lives a cry

the ill intents of this morning sent her
to go and find it

she puts her search in gear
and maneuvering around the hurts
that anger had buried and past
the pains that live only
temporary she found her way
to those that permanently
reside

their bony remains sharp and
constant reminders
of the cry they hide

they beckon and moan in voices
that no amount of wishing will
forget

at the point that the wails loom
closer and closer
threatening to close the road
she knows that just
around the corner is
a break down

she cuts the search short

thank you my friend, and though we might think the work face the only one, we still have inside the face of a friend...and your understanding this day brings warm tears for some reason ...thank you

Hi jellybeans. What a piece. So full of raw emotion. This is what makes it worth the read. For a moment to be one with such pain...so sad. I feel for you dear friend. Healing takes a life time...but I'm here when you need a shoulder to lean on. Huge hugs!

Remember, if you're not part of the future, you're history!

How painful and powerful are your words... I wish I could make things easier for you, my friend.
