Listening deep down

Poetic Dan

As I start to grow, it feels uncomfortable
Too much pressure I need to let go

Finding solitude, strength to not fear
Returning in my personal gear

Now I'll picture this as my heart
All the broken times it fell apart

Letting it experience to become more
Bigger and harder but still soft

This is the lesson from the lobster

    PD, I get it, except for the lobster lesson. Got me stumped there! Is this an 'English' thing? You know we 'Americans' are sometimes a bit clueless!

      As an English man, I didn't get the lobster lesson either!

      • Poetic Dan

        Hahaha, well it was hearing that for a lobster to grow it has to become uncomfortable in its own skin.

        If it was like us, it would go and get a pill or something and never grow. So the lesson for me was you can't block out emotions and other things 😉

        Really appreciate you both brightening my morning

        Good write and like Fred got confused by the lobster lesson.

          It worked for my brain, guess I was clawing at the bubbles. Bad pun but had to give it a go

          • Poetic Dan

            This can only be true when recognised by a pure heart too 😉
