The Haunting Of A Broken Spirit And Beleaguered Soul. . Her pricing haunting blood shocked eyes Reflect her heavy rain cloud acid corroded heart And spirit broken beleaguered soul Although in the summer of her blossoming youth She aged beyond her tender gifted years Life has took it’s scourging toll And she can no longer hold back Her floods of painful tears . The bombshell blast that devastated and destroyed her life Left her shell shocked unable to piece together The shards and carnage left behind Her dreams have turned into nightmares Her bed but a bed of nails her broken spirit tied to the mast She once dreamed of idle lush green bejewelled meadows But now dwells in a mine field in total darkness And with every breathe and step she takes She feels the blast . Snared and tangled in a cobweb The more she riddles the more she's tangled Her hapless struggle is all in vane She stands on the ege of oblivion And welcomes an end to her bitter anguish and pain. . Peter Dome©2021.

bad day? thought so..people in general don't comment as much on the site now, nothing personal, sometimes people read but don't comment, sometimes they don't know what to say..the important thing is the poem's created and it says what you want it to say..xx

I don't think there is any excuse. people don't have to comment but they do on many other sites. I notice people have there favourites, and rightly so. they are so talented and nice people. but i get the impression it's not what you write, but who you are. thanx x

Hello Peter, It takes me time to create a poem. I never know if it is good enough to submit. I submit every 4 days because ideas for poetry does not come easy to me. In my dreams I get ideas. Wake up write down the title then go back to sleep. Write the poem the next day.I agree with what you said. Yes we express ourselves the best we can. Darlene x

Hello Peter, I like the way you create your poetry. I can tell that you put your heart into it. I feel the sadness in this poem you created. Poems are to have feelings of sadness or happiness etc. You have health problems! What type of health problems do you have? You never told me. I hope it is not serious. Darlene x

I know my poems are not brilliant but why few comment?.im grateful for everyone, but have never had so few comments on this site as any other. and i have to pay. when every other site is free?I will not subscribe again.I try to support as many poets as I can with the precious little time I have with poor health. I feel we should all be supportive to everyone. we may not always liked for our words, or our poems not good. but we are all growing and need encouragement. It's not so much how good you are but that we express ourselves the best we can.My poems come from the heart.
