The relationship here is unclear it mother, father, sister or brother even grandparents it could be but the relationship seems to be an issue. We can not change our biology so I understand the issue with heredity, genes and DNA. Well written

The Custody Papers

A sad poem. Nicely written it speaks about the difficulty of custody for parents and even more for children. Well written it feels stark and cold.

See In Me What I Can’t
Soman Ragavan said:

The root of it all is that we are unable to see ourselves objectively. We carry stubborn ideas of ourselves in our heads.

Who Do You Want Me To Be?
sorenbarrett said:

This poem leaves me with the feeling of uncertainty. It portrays well the feeling of not belonging to one or the other. Util one knows who one is one can not convince others. An existential question that needs an answer. Well written

Absolute Silence
sorenbarrett said:

Nicely stated and composed. I do have such a life where I don\'t see people except about every month when I go to shop and otherwise see only various birds surrounded by mountainside and forest. I do have internet and electricity but water is from a spring. It is not lonely but peaceful. Loved your write but yes you could have more to finish it.
