What Doesnt Kill Us
What doesn’t kill us …. may smother our soul
while brain and body breath yet, as ever so;
Fragile core pieces may splinter and ache,
mourn the sparks fate did not wake
while notions continue for motion's sake;
What doesn’t break us …. may garrote our spirit,
burn our ink to day dark dust
where no write pens a peaceful brush
or pain stroked hush.
