Dying Alone
L. B. Mek said:
Dying alone is a morbid but undeniable reality for a vast majority, sadly..
but this can occur to anyone, those with plenty of loved one\'s in their lives, or those with no one..
I think, your poem just adds more weight to the concept of realising every day\'s potential, no please
do not mistake me for some all-rose tinted hope-fuelled zealot of positivity, rather
I\'m just saying:
next time you walk in to a store and you pick up that last bottle of your favourite,
or that show you\'ve been meaning to catch is starting as soon as you switch on your screen,
or an old timer spends a few minutes at crossroad lights sharing some witty chit chat,
try to take a moment and realise, this is why beginnings and ending\'s seldom matter
to those doing the living, rather
its all those mysterious gifts of subtle solace, that accumulate and add that element of unique seasoning, to give our lives tangible meaning..
and in my own foolish way, this is how I overcome the sobering reality\'s of life you inked so well,
thanks for sharing dear poet, a great read

Lake
reverberate said:
hey anonamus,
I had the same dream as you but less so:
on the lake
In my dream
a handmade boat
its oars stowed
a song drifts
where I need to be
it takes me.
