A certified winner. It’s fun to unwind the moment to remember with an energy freshened by potential delight in the recall. Also, if we subscribe to the tome of noted regents of the psychiatric world, you are off the hook. Even a slight tinge of “oh oh” that may rejoin the dip back could be the painted part, the rewritten by us but unknown to us as a formulaic recall is not ours , not likely, but rather a recreate perhaps designed to mend or serve as catalyst to ascend, so be selfish w those images or be gingerly explorative cuz it’s a part that is all years and moment to cherish w sublimation. I enjoyed both what I think you thought and the exact way you displayed the journey.

Attaching meaning to what might be a padding incident ti some Tesky defines a heightened sense of the now and convinces that you appreciate splendor found through any travel and blesses that fact of your cherished path. You go Girl!

\'We wrote books on each other; a library of them.\'
now that\'s what i call a kidney blow
of a first line
I\'m doubled up, fighting for breath
pushing back
against nightmares I thought I had long
repressed..
hey, if you\'re gonna write like that
I\'m wearing my bullet proof mindset
when I read your surgical Poetry
sheesh, just got my breath back
lol
(and breathe, its all in the past son
all in the past)

Dear Liz, Absolutely breathtaking, your imagery is so vivid, and your title too perfect, I\'d say sounds like another song to me, if you haven\'t got a sonnet try one it would be truly wonderful after all it\'s a song in itself. A true tragedy of love when we no longer communicate. Beautifully expressed. 💖

I think that you have just surpassed the very high standard of writing you hold yourself to
Best I\'ve read in a while
Makes me wonder how someone with such a mastery of words could get so tangled
The 1st line alone makes me long to turn the next page
A stunning write that was a pleasure to read
I Could go on and on
Superb

I was getting ready to read a 1,000 word poem - Phew!
If on average each long line here is 20 words, I make that about 120 words in all.

YOUR TEARS
L. B. Mek said:

it\'s our super power, dear Poet
tears as our disinfectant
to that crimson unseen but felt
empathy as our conduit
to the wisdom we seek n need
in each stab of pain, we feel
deep beneath hardened skin
we blossom, our capacity
to evolve, in our lifetime!
(feel, live, hurt, forgive
grow, blossom, soar
fall, and climb back up again
we get to dance with clouds
let that be reward enough)
at this point I\'m convinced
you found that ipod i lost
that one time
or i found yours, dear friend
lol
(beautiful song choice
best believe
i\'m getting my jazz n blues
out tonight
I miss my Coltrane, blue train)
😎

Hi liz .. I can relate to this .. I think it’s very difficult to feel we are ‘ Absorbing others emotions or sensing them too much ..

I think there’s probably ways to protect ourselves ..

Our feelings are enough aren’t they .. very difficult to deal with someone else’s

A good poem tho especially like the last few lines

Fixing my crown, I walked through the maze; I wouldn\'t say I won, but my soul didn\'t break.

YOUR TEARS
Bobby O said:

My first thought was about them, impolitely I delay my applause for the write but first, I’m selfishly curious, raw conflicts v an ungodly immoral foe is my magical elixir building adrenalized rushes barely controlled. Did you describe an enemy that meant you harm or rather was it an anthropomorphic inner demon assigned w ability to conquer perhaps and mistakenly underestimated you exponential ability to battle?

DEMONS
L. B. Mek said:

taking action, while fingers shake
that chosen drug, still coursing
through our veins and stuttering lungs
tears as smiles, hope as silence
in this moment, my new page
is birthed, bottles emptied
everything binned
a new me, excavating that child me
from deep within, liberating a self
I tried to burry, beneath fear\'s
corrosive fingernails and lies
\'salut\' with H2O, to my eyes
free of self-cruelty\'s, bloodshot
accusations
watch out world, hear my roar
prepare to watch a queen, soar...!
