The starting

spilleronsheet

Once again 

life took turn

we ended 

where we started 

 

the battle was lost

the soldier still alive

tattered and tired

covered with wounds 

 

nobody cares 

if you survive 

the underscore remains 

you lost

 

mustering the courage 

hard and difficult 

but you practised not to be torn

you wash your wounds

leave them untended

to remind the harshness

 

you must survive 

survive the storms

to live gracefully 

one fine day 

when sun shall shine overhead

wearing the crown of sola overhead….

      Now the hope is fading too fast dear Andy…

      That it most definitely did, turn after turn but hopefully now I've found cruise control!
      Great read and good to see you my friend, I always see your crown from my angel.

      • spilleronsheet

        Good to hear that you found your cruise control…I am still searching and I don’t know how long will this continue…

        Survival is indeed a prime motivator. Heroes are remembered by most once or twice a year but they are dead history unless you fought alongside them.

        Many storms confront every life. We have a choice. Do we confront the storms head on (risky) or batten down the hatches and ride it out?

        • spilleronsheet

          You very well dissected and placed the dilemmas, the situation…..yes, clearly its a choice whether to fight head on or batten the hatches…and I shall remember to confront them…

            Along with reading the words of desiderata and calming the mind to work again with all might….thanks dear dusk for providing me the answers with your questions…

            life-affirmingly, empowering!
            'if you survive
            the underscore remains
            you lost

            mustering the courage
            hard and difficult
            but you practised not to be torn
            you wash your wounds
            leave them untended
            to remind the harshness

            you must survive
            survive the storms
            to live gracefully'..
            onwards then, dear Poet
            lets see what this twisted Fate
            has to throw at us
            knowing, its all
            been seen before
            felt, before
            and survived, before
            by someone, who existed
            before antibiotics
            and credit cards
            and freedom, to choose
            our paths in life..
            yeah, You've got this!
            aim high
            fall hard and brush yourself off
            then soar, ever higher
            laughing
            at how simple it all becomes
            when you believe in yourself
            and forgive, yourself!

            • spilleronsheet

              I heed to your advice, find the soothing words….thanks a small word for this beautiful cheer you wrote…like an angel moving your wand…yep, I will affirm, brush off the dust and start again…despite the fall, I shall spring to bloom again….shining high bright in sky…singing the words of Longfellow inside….thanks dear Mek, for this beautiful advice….
