Stop me if you\'ve heard this one before.

More Power to You, Brave Poet!
we must all, Fight
that good Fight and excavate
and excavate, some semblance
of meaning and worth
from this - thing, we\'ve titled
existence!
thanks for sharing, stay Strong!
\'I stopped listening to myself, to get through loss after loss.
\"Just get through this part. Okay, now this part\".
But the \"parts\" never stopped happening.\'
and this, we call
A
life...
such is that accursed coin flip of fate
while some
have yet, to have a loved one die
never failed a test or job application
and found a lasting love
in that school playground...
\'but their alcohol will ever be bitter
while ours
just tastes sweeter and sweeter...\'

Where does the good go?
L. B. Mek said:

a snapshot
of the despondently bleak outlook
many, can relate with
but that last line and the hopeful tone
you choose to end your poem on
gives this reading experience
that much more utility and preciousness..
thank you!
for choosing to share
such a great read
