heartbreak

They can break your heart, but they can't break your soul; poetry about lost love that comforts and uplifts.

Her Thoughts
As she stood reciting a soliloquy of her thoughts digging deep just like her pain that runs the same way maybe just maybe he would care to learn the alphabets to her words which will lead to the story of her soul She was poetry but he couldn't read... Or maybe he can read but chooses not to. Once given the knowledge it's hard to deny it and sometimes it's easier to ignore what you know in silence. Is it her that reads too much? Intrigued by discovery Willing to open herself to him but he's out of touch He's blind because his love doesn't belong to her and he won't see it any other way This is more than English class this is life's composition it is clear that if he could choose his reality would still belong to the life he created with his wife While I only have moments his wife has his forever There's a reason he can't read my poetry He's reading pages from another book

Hike-ku!
The first step is hard. My backpack gives and then takes. Forward? Yes, I say... * Some urge to map it. Sun on horizon; cold grows.

Finding Yourself In Losing Yourself
Normally I do not explain a challenge, but a quick point out; My poem chosen the one I chose to do backwards. I did this because I felt It had more in pact when read that way. It first shows a women talking about her negative side turning into a more positive pov, after losing herself in someone-She found herself in all the heartbreak.

It’s Not About the Money
I often sit and ponder What’s in a dollar Not what is it made of But what it makes for us Often it’s very little And it’s only getting smaller

Persephone's Lament
In the crisp bite of winter At the end of an era I tear into the flesh of the fruit I pick with grubby hands I tear at the sinews

Now is not a place she wants to be. Top Story - January 2024.
Anguish, quiet behind her smiles and laughter. Core hollowed out by trenchant disapproving stares which she was taught to

Crosshair
Got the bullseye but my technique’s not strong. Butcher-knife in my eye, now my vision’s all off. Your grenades are thrown at me, in a second I’m gone.
