The Day Before the Day

THE DAY BEFORE THE DAY (Grappling with suicide) you just have to remain being alive; I suppose and not to die with the trashed out claptraps; but to gasp out a prayer cry to persist while forming rainbows; from tunnels where demons lie as nought will miss the substance; of hearts sojourned last sigh © Kim van Breda—29 June 2014

Poignantly written! To form rainbows where demons lie is such a powerful image. I can't imagine the feelings of considering suicide... but you paint them vividly.

Man, if 'We're Spirits' then, I think stepping into that role is where 'It's' all at....KLove *
