Broken

This is poetry's pretty pottery shattering:
 fault lines in life-lines fracturing
  writing it real while cracking

The path you take makes all the difference, but isn't always the case when broken, like you Charlotte, I relate. Soul stirring alright. Congratulations on your win unique poetess! (Some don't like the word poetess; how do you feel about it)?

Some of the best poetry is derived from shattered life-moments, CP. Sad, true, eternal. Great interpretation here. :o)

Oh my, I can deeply feel the fragility that has been infused in these palpable lines, so poignant and heartfelt.You've described the state of vulnerability and ache in a very impactful way here "poetry's pretty pottery shattering" Ahh, I can resonate with this gloomy aura. "Fault lines in life-lines fracturing" That's really profound!! "Writing it real while cracking" For me, it's very hard to express my deepest emotions during breakdown, it takes so much courage and resilience itself..love this
