dusk arising said:

The days go on, their beauty pushed aside by dark clouds of inner turmoil which overrules and challenges our control.
Resolute we know the days will ease and pains will give way to laughter somewhere, somehow, and it does, somewhere, somehow.

Superb piece of melancholy expressed here which drew me right in.

Alta, I can sense such deep pain and sorrow in your words but such bravery to continue your day. Letting your emotions out is sometimes the only way we can start our day with a clear mind... until we lose ourselves again. Great work.

Yes dear Alta writing out our sorrows and anguish at losing love is the only way to cope at times......... a solemn read but with wise advice to those undergoing such trials.

FredPeyer said:

We are all dreamers, Alta. At the end that is all we have left. Your great poem reminds me of the old saying: Better to have loved and lost that not to have loved at all.
