The Pitiful Reality of Time and Infinite Sorrows

The Pitiful Reality Of Time And Infinite Sorrows green pastures, dawn's glow future scenes of lonely night pale moon, shadows fall Robert J. Lindley, haiku, ( Wherein A Battle Rages On ) This very short poem is all that I can muster now of my dedication to my lifelong writings... Sad.... Whereas once many centuries ago, writing could ease my pains and help heal me- now it seems to be a negated exercise and thus not so...

Hello Robert, to quote Einstein "People like us who believe in physics know that the distinction between past, present, and future is only a stubbornly persistent illusion." perhaps this was his pitiful reality, or perhaps he’s saying, once someone was alive they’ll always be there existing outside our human construe of time, I know this will be small comfort to you, I’m truly sorry for your losses, cheers David

Looking at sorrow, feeling, without sinking, imbibing without indulging, we may embrace and release pain, transmuting the core of our heart to recognise soul presence, always one with our twin flame and oneness, that each sun ray entwines with others in an epiphany of singular God consciousness
