Hope in Those Smiling Eyes
Dan Williams said:

Sadly, this might all too likely come to pass. What a poor job we humans have done, what a good job you have done detailing it. Nice work.

Damn, this has such intense emotional weight. It feels really raw and honest. Loss is such a painful experience it\'s hard to put it into words, but your poem reflects it really well

Hope in Those Smiling Eyes
arqios said:

War is never a good thing, both victor and vanquished loss a great deal, for me it’s always a Pyrrhic victory. And no one can tell me otherwise, the amount of lives, property, resources and peace that we had lost as a family alone are not and possibly will never be compensated by the so called resulting benefits gained. It’s just not worth it in the end.

In the case of this poem, I think that it is a creation that can find hope in the main character.

The human condition is a social one and one of our fears is being alone. War and death threaten this and this poem portrays that fear. Nicely written

The word on words and our emotional journey, in a rhythmic and contemplative flow. Good use of repetition.

Are The Words Still Healing
sorenbarrett said:

A most intersting format that makes good sense for the theme of the poem. Each question in a type of duality not answered but implied in a gentle way. Very nice it seemes quite eastern in its approach to teaching

My Heart Still Beats The Same
Cassie58 said:

Children can be so cruel. I can remember being ridiculed because I looked like a stick insect. It hurt at the time, but I do believe I grew in strength as a result of those experiences. A touching write dear Tobani, which resonated with me.

My Heart Still Beats The Same
Tristan Robert Lange said:

For some, childhood was a dream, for others a nightmarish horror. I had a mix of the two. My home life was stable overall, but my school/social life was a living horror. Abusive teachers, bullied by my peers, a social outcast (not even sure why)…then add in a Traumatic Brain Injury, depression, anxiety, suicidal ideations, substance use, etc. Poetry, faith and a few very beloved friends got me through…but some of that may have been more luck than anything. We all know those who did not survive those times…well, at least I do. 😒 I could have been, came close to being, one of them. Anyway, your poem touches my heart because it hits a heart that has wide cracks in it from experiencing its content. In some ways, this heart stopped beating the same way as a result. It misses beats now. I know these words, deeply and personally, and I am sorry you or anyone else has had to go through it. This can be a cold harsh world and that harshness can certainly manifest in the worst ways in children as well as adults. πŸ˜” A wonderful, moving expression of an ugly, horrific reality. πŸŒΉπŸ‘β€οΈβ€πŸ©Ή

My Heart Still Beats The Same
arqios said:

Being different is a distinction but there is great comfort in being the same, it’s a crowd thing, in every observable culture. There is a strong pull to go either direction and a strong sense of self and trusted support community can make things easier.
