Black Hole

It is a hole of black
Where I find myself
Cannot retract
I dug the hole myself

Thoughts of murk
Not substance from the mind of I
Yet in this darkness I lurk
Pleasing the sadness of I

O’ how dismal the dirty, gloom
How can you forgive me?
A pother creeps stealthily, my tomb
How can I forgive me?

What Deb said is so true. We have all did this at one time or another. If you need an ear or a shoulder on line you have many of us who will listen. Never hold the bitterness and sadness in your heart. Life is to live not to grieve. Phyl
