or perhaps complex yet smaller
a system instead of interconnections
that finding cracks in the surface
spread outward
an inky pool of
things we cannot clean
the stain
spreading
now filling the void
and
we are bound to what
we can salvage
pulling artwork from our pockets
and flinging pictures into the air
hoping we can catch them
as they flutter to the ground
before they read the inky pool
that spreading
consumes all.

We all have dark stages to our life. I suppose one could say its all right for him or her, but in the end we find out that the grass is not really greener on the other side of the fence?
that is so true how we come out of darkness marks us forever.
Nicely penned and you express your feeling very week, I was a very emotional teen and I always carried a notebook around with me at high school where I fitted down poems as they came to me, You know all the brokenhearted and longing for love stuff,
i wrote this in college when I broke up with my first really serious girlfriend/friend. She was a good friend for a long time, sadly we were very serious but then broke up.
it really hurt a lot!
These are our lives. We all have dark and bright moments. All moments pass and we live on.
that is so true, spoke like a survivor!
Very well done. Sometimes we find the most inspiration in our darkest times.
you know that is very true. thank you for reminding me!
Not always a person’s life is a smooth road. There are obstacles that we need to go through and move on.
i truly agree, we do have to pick up and move on!
We shouldn’t forget where we came from or what we underwent as they serve as encouragement we can make it through life.
that my friend is brilliant but the hardest thing of all.
Right, especially when it is traumatic.
oh yea, my wife deals with that in hospice. I did for years when I was teaching.
As a teacher, you will have to come across it. I know she has much knowledge about psychology and the best methods to use to assist people in these areas.
yes sadly teachers have to deal with a lot.
