Sometimes those closest to us bear the sharpest knives. I feel this one on a cellular level. Thank you!!!

Tristan Robert Lange said:

Antra, I connect with the ache behind this...that moment when the title people carry in your life no longer matches how they actually treat you. That disconnect can be devastating. This one stayed with me, my friend. 🌹🖤🙏🕯️🐦‍⬛

Sad this poem questions relationships that are perceived as not understanding or caring. Well written Antra

Tell them it\'s O.K. for them to say they love you, tell them you need their love more now than ever before so that you do not get eaten alive by the machine. Perhaps just a quiet sit down conversation with just you and them. It may be that they are trying to protect you from all the other attention you are getting by trying to keep you on keel by ignoring all the glamor. - Phil A.

Dear future me
Tristan Robert Lange said:

Antra, I connect with this deeply. There’s something powerful about imagining a future self not as someone distant, but as someone you’re already caring for through the choices you make now. Really beautiful, my friend. 🌹🖤🙏🕯️🐦‍⬛

Tristan Robert Lange said:

Wow, Antra...this is deeply moving. The contrast between public victory and private hurt gives the whole piece real weight. Being praised by the world means very little when the people you most want to hear it from stay silent. Powerful work, my friend. 🌹🖤🙏🕯️🐦‍⬛

More often in this life it’s less the tangible things that bring us joy but rather the intangible. Great work.

There is a huge amount of pain in this write a feeling of not being enough that somehow one\'s own parents do not recognize them. In most species mothers have an unconditional love for their young if this is not present the problem is not with the young but the mother. Well written and heart rending

Once they see you\'re talanted, you enter the machine and don\'t come out till you\'re replaced.
Sadly the person and their feelings get left behind.

Sunflower.
sorenbarrett said:

A wonderful write that makes an allegory and personifies the sunflower. To face the east where the sun raises is to look for light or knowledge and truth. One is not the truth but one looks for it. Nicely written

Let your inner light shine! ☺️

Waiting
Fränz Müller said:

We grow old and die waiting for that perfect moment to arrive. Sacrificing the good waiting for the great. Very well said!

Waiting
sorenbarrett said:

This is a most interesting write I guess it depends what you are waiting for and the chances that it will come. Nicely written

It\'s okay...
sorenbarrett said:

This seems a poem of it is what it is. So many times that things are not what one wants but one has no choice in the matter. Well written

Just for once...

Quite moving!

sorenbarrett said:

Parental responsibility to a point since the child came because of you, out of you, of you and you set the pattern they learned by and even latter controlled their friends or maybe should have. Is this child not a piece of you in miniature? I hear the pain in this poem of not feeling accepted or even wanted.

You made me realise!

sorenbarrett said:

A graphic metaphor of control for the wrong purpose. All children need control until they can learn to take it themselves in a responsible manner but it should be based on the well being of the individual as well as the group. Nicely written

A beautiful poem of the positive atributes of a child and one that is given the burdens of an adult when a child and called a child when they become an adult a mixed and paradoxical combination. Well written

FALLING STARS ✨

A poem that reads like a proverb holding good advice in poetic form. Nicely written and imaged.
