Ghosting

ELIORA

Ghosting is comfort over courage,
despair chosen instead of strength.

Their silence is not your measure,
but the red of their despair,
a hollow echo of emptiness.

Choose yourself.
Accept the reality.
For love that hides in shadows
was never meant to hold your light.

    This poem seems a poetic challenge to face up to what one has created and what is out there

    • ELIORA

      Thank you, Soren. I like how you put that — it really is about facing what we create and what it reveals.

        You are very welcome Eliora

        Always quite happy when people ghost me, especially if it's near christmas, saves me money.
        Sadly, like boomerangs they make their way back.

          Haha, that’s a clever way to see it, Paul! Ghosting does have a funny way of circling back.
