If You Look Hard Enough, You\'ll Find It

Is it almost like feeling ‘ numb ‘ , and empty ? That is a kind of sadness in itself although you feel like your not feeling the sadness as much

I think it’s better to be atleast in that place of feeling ‘ in between ‘ those feelings then caught in a place of despair
But yes happiness is what we all want !
Great poem 🙂 I like how you have expressed yourself

Such a sincere outpouring of emotion makes this not just any ordinary poem. The lived experience is felt through every line. I guess we move on but never forget. The finality of loss is just something we many a times we grapple to come to terms with. Kudos to you for such a compelling an honest write, dear writer.

Thank you for sharing this beautiful poem. My mum passed away 2 years ago. So many wonderful memories I have of our time together. Your poem reminded me of the unconditional love mothers have for their children.

Magnificent. I can hear the dramatic tone which not only makes this poem so much more emotional but also a reflection for those who felt vulnerable when they lost the ones they loved. This sort of poem I can imagine myself in a situation like that with someone I lost who I love dearly. Bravo.

thank you for sharing! Mourning is such a personal process. I love the imagery in: \"I felt like the sill and I felt like the latches.\" Also, the line \"Sealed up the night\" as it almost feels like closure - if there is such a thing in grief. But the night is something open, so I think the paradox makes it is a very fitting metaphor. I like it!

Thank you for sharing this to the community, it\'s vulnerability at its peak, truly emotional. It reminded me how we should be appreciative of our closed ones because of how short life really is. Another wonderful work!

There is so much woven into your poem. I feel that I need to go through it several times to understand the different layers. This is a great piece of a puzzle. Thank you.

I really like the vibes of this poem! I did actually not think about drugs at first haha but this might just be my naivety.
Especially the line with \"clouds of silver linings\" made me think of a mental safe-space. Something to come back to during difficult times. Also, a bit unconventional but, my mind brought up Taylor Swift lyrics. In her song \"gold rush\" she writes: \"gleaming, twinkling (...) so inviting, I almost jump in\".

A beautiful imagery
With mix of old memories
With pinch of mystery
With dust of desire
With a bit of fantasy
With a sense of calm
And nevertheless an aroma of yearning
Well scripted dear Rocky

Good write Rocky.
A similar (maybe not?) quote to the one you posted - \'I was in such a rush, I met myself coming back from shopping, while I was on my way there! Eh? lol.

If this was a sixties\' poem, I would assume you\'re at Woodstock, and the drugs are just kicking in. In saying that, gnomes are pleasant wee things.

I really like your style of writing, the single lines and that you add words in paranthesis. It gives your work a unique touch and, in a way, creates more room for interpretation even though or maybe because it gives the reader something new to hold onto.

MY SILENT PROTEST (A Rant Against My Homophobic Father)
spilleronsheet said:
A very emotional write
Courageous to write and proud as an audience to read the honest feels
Each one is special
A special child of God
And to him it’s not about norms and rituals
To him initially is to love oneself
To cherish the feels of oneself
There will be fire
There will be pain
There will be anguish
When you take some different lane
But it’s alright be patient enough
Times are changing so shall the norms
Where kindness rests, a beautiful sun shall shine
And truly a rainbow shall greet after a downpour
