Floating gently on a cloud....

It dangled temptingly
It sparkled
Catching my eye
Making me wonder.

Was it hope?

I grabbed it
Before it could vanish
And there was blood.

My heart in ribbons
Twirling and swirling
Giddily as I let go again.

It was a knife they used
To rip open the stitches
Of newly healing wounds.

Time to start again.

This is very powerful.
Indeed, there are sometimes such painful setbacks, but what counts in the end is that we never lose hope and that we are able to start again.
Beautiful.
Love, Margherita

Lizzie...

I'm sorry they couldn't just leave it alone and let you heal...I hope this works out for the best.

i truly know this and have learned to learn from the experiance and not dwell in anger or pain even though pain can be very deep and hard to heal you just got to be strong and believe in yourself and mankind and have hope just think of the good you got from that one and be thankfull somethings just arent meant to be but at least it always brings something new into our life along with a little wisdom or knowledge to carrie on

Thanks for the replies everybody. I am doing ok again now, managed to refocus again. Gotta be like a daisy in the grass and bounce back up when trampled. Doing my best.
