Still searching

Poetic Dan

Mental madness dripping in the mud for months 

 

Love may not of expired but existence is numb 

 

No fire to absorb the sodden focused thoughts 

 

A river of denial to an oceans unsecured floor 

 

Embedded in the pressure from responsibilities shore 

 

Many cracks can appear that were never there before 

 

Hidden in Chambers held open ready to explore

    • Poetic Dan

      Good morning my friend I guess numb is still a feeling and without that is have nothing to write!

      Ummm
      Hope you find your muse soon
      Distraught and grieved I resonate along
      Some words you spoke struck my chords
      I don’t know what your going through
      But as long as, your on way of healing, it’s a relief
      Happy healing dear poet
      Hope we find our passion soon

        Thank you for your kindness and yes I'll be honest as always am.

        The darkness has always told me I spoils not be here and failure is my only option but yet to attract souls like yourself with amazing poetry.

        I must be doing something right! Really appreciate your time!

          You never fail to make me feel blessed to be me and if I can achieve half of what you do! Then I've truly become an honourable person, a pleasure as ever and hope you well.

          Maybe it's the holiday season doing you in Dan .... days get longer soon! We'll watch for you.....

          • Poetic Dan

            I wish I could say it was but its been here more than a few months but with the help of beautiful souls like you, the passion will come and find something new..

            Even if its just a poem or two.

            Always appreciated my dear friend

            So sorry to read youve been feeling down my buddy. Blame it on the misery of winter and this pandemic thing..... try to get your head around looking forward to spring. How is that beautiful little daughter of yours??? No, i'm not forgetting the other beautiful daughter or her brother who's probably into all sorts of mischief between the two of them.

            Keep writing for us Dan, you know its a necessary outlet rather than bottling it up inside. You know you have lots of supporting friends here and we want to read your words as regularly as you can please. Apart from self help, you are a great help to others here through your fearless honesty.
            Respect.

            • Poetic Dan

              Good morning buddy and I must say reading your comment last night was like having an old blanket that never failed to give comfort.

              Today is the first time in months I actually have the whole crew together for 24HR.
              I'll try my hardest just to take it all in even after a 2am call last night to quite down, got to love the family time that won't last forever.

              Hope you're as well as can be my friend and thank you again.
              Much peace and respect

              You have moved on so far in your life Dan, it is such a shame to see you slide back. Look at the good things that you have found in your life and bring them to the fore.

                I guess I really should just start enjoying the ride but it is always easy to get up with so much amazing support around.

                Thank you dear friend
                Always appreciated
