Affirmation of Hope Asterik Post

AFFIRMATION of HOPE *post

I feel a tinge of gaiety

*Post engulfed in a state of Way more than melancholy
                                                                           Get thee?

*Post contemplating the blackest, most morose, morbid Acts of human frailty

*Post chronic conceptualization of easy release
  ~ bleeding out ~ 
*Post persistent thoughts fraught with only finality

*Post the Black & White thinking process of a Fragile mind gasping, grasping 
 for fresh air blindly

*Post time for new spectacles to Reobtain the ability to see reasons to once 
  again carry on despite the condition of this ever-so-short gift of life in a world 
  drowning in blatent hypocrisy

Ahhh!
Breathing purposeful breaths..
                      Didn't act on my thoughts
                      Didn't follow through
                      Don't have to
                      Didn't sucomb
                      Don't want to be "Comfortably Numb"

Sun shining, birds chirping, children playing
Blue skies opening AGAIN the wondrous atmosphere of the Universe
Oh so furtive, Allusive HOPE attained once more.
 ONLY *post

                                                                                                                           ~  Jill ~
