Discardions From The Day

Written: November 26, 2023 _______________________________________ In ephemeral moments Whispering remembrance, Of gilded blooms Once shoved Embedded into priceless papyrus. I dwell in visions that have faded away Life is thwarted by shaping it Beyond vibrant hues Stardust tumbles down Blisters of emptiness A silence that pervades. Alone, holding only gray Sorrow tightened A heart's wound is reopened To beat uncertainty. Into an intricate mind Tones of gray scale.

I was enveloped into your loneliness and gray immediately. All of your words echoing cries of sadness and deep introspection. I felt alone with you as if we both sat together and yet were unaware of each other’s presence. I especially liked ~ Alone, holding only gray Sorrow tightened . You have an amazing gift . A fav for me . Hugs to you dear Sotto Poet , Susan :)

An excellent analogy.. I love this stanza in particular.. I dwell in visions that have faded away Life is thwarted by shaping it Beyond vibrant hues Stardust tumbles down Blisters of emptiness A silence that pervades.. As always you decorate this site with your wonderful word weaving..

This is so deeply moving and soul stirring how you’ve expressed and described loneliness and sorrow is beyond brilliant and beautiful, I especially love the lines “ I dwell in visions that have faded away Life is thwarted by shaping it“ so touching, and well articulated “ Alone, holding only gray Sorrow tightenedA heart's wound is reopened To beat uncertainty“ these words truly are soul hitting! Powerful write this is. Definitely a fave for me. Pleasure reading your deep and introspective pomes
