The Un-Blocked Ones
Circles of people
engaged with their failure
continue living
a ruined dreams’ tenure.
Blocking.
Together they walk
they talk and they cry
for their past is revealed
hidden pain when they smile.
Unblocking.
Vanity their common feeling
but they do have knowledge now
for each one has to become
mirror to the rest somehow.
Blocking.
Feelings of a pale hope
floating on the air among
for the things that can be changed
nothing lasts for a lifelong.
Unblocking.
Deep inside they do know
they have to leave their burden
before carrying another one
nothing in life is for certain.
Blocking.
When one falls on the ground
others gently lift them up
because they entirely understand
that the kindness caused the wound.
Unblocking.
