Let the world consume me.
Feed me to its teeth, and
Watch, as it strips me
Down to the bone.
Bleed out all the colour.
Allow the wound to
Weep and blacken,
Exposing the rot, leaving
Nothing but carcass.
While earth takes root,
Let self dissolve, and
Smile for me, my love,
For where I end,
Life begins.

Powerful work, Kora. There’s a stark surrender in these lines, a poet staring into decay and finding a strange kind of rebirth waiting underneath.
It carries the weight of endings, but also the quiet truth that even broken things can become the soil where something new grows.
Thank you for your interpretation ❤️
A strong poem Kora where acceptance of life and nature frees one beyond the constraints that were holding one. Lovely
Thank you as always Soren 🥰
You are most welcome Kora
