The Un-Blocked Ones

Circles of people engaged with their failure continue living a ruined dreams’ tenure. Blocking. Together they walk they talk and they cry for their past is revealed hidden pain when they smile. Unblocking. Vanity their common feeling but they do have knowledge now for each one has to become mirror to the rest somehow. Blocking. Feelings of a pale hope floating on the air among for the things that can be changed nothing lasts for a lifelong. Unblocking. Deep inside they do know they have to leave their burden before carrying another one nothing in life is for certain. Blocking. When one falls on the ground others gently lift them up because they entirely understand that the kindness caused the wound. Unblocking.

When we cling to pain and dwell on our failures, we block out everything good that wants to come our way. I love the way you summed it up as "they do know they have to leave their burden before carrying another one." Let's continue lifting each other up through poetry. Awesome message in your poem!
