Undiluted.
Midnight, sipping on anger uncorks feelings.
Hours of relentless quiet allows unwatered truth
of rancour revealed.
Alone, daunting solitude enlivens nostalgia.
Caught in mind-clasp of blighted self pity I writhe
in abject unbalance.
Choked, distressing fear of failure threatens.
Ready for progress and apathy ousted my memory
owns to housing regrets.
Blinded, growing perception of life berates.
Choices however gear ways to better dimensions
when sense reawakens.
Fruited, maturing outlook reaps candour.
Seeds that tear-sieved show nurtured acceptance
as belief over-plants.
Powered, hoarding mistrust will recede.
With ego's demise warmth felt for others defines
what is to be.
Midnight, sipping on Now uncorks links.
Hours of relentless quiet let light seep undiluted
into my thinking.

And that is how life flows for the positive minded.
Another of your well woven tapestries here lifting us out of dark blues thru sensible pastels of reassurance and into the light of futures promise.
When i read your poetry today somebodies famous song lyrics came to mind:-
Strumming my pain with her fingers,
Singing my life with her words,
Telling my whole life with her words,
Killing me softly with her song.
I know where every line of your piece today comes from believe me. So well written.
You are most generous with your comments on my efforts with words dear D.A. - -- am truly grateful for your continued input - love the quoted lyrics too - am honoured you thought of that famous song alongside my poem.
... Me n me mate D A are in complete agreement with regard to how well crafted your 'Undiluted' post is ... pure unadulterated poetry ...
Thank you kind Sir - --- and very muchly .
Good Evening FAY - Brian here!
Midnight - all alone on the Moonlight
Can agrevate ones Memories - and
make the day seem *worse than it was* !
However as the night wears on - There
is some light @ the end of the Tunnel.
We*ve all been there - AMEN !
Love - Joy & Peace
Brian & Angel & Smokey 💛💛💛
