A Poem by Circe










when i heard about your crash my world froze
nothing matters anymore
all the petty disagreements
i take them back




all i ever wanted
was a splint
of your
strength
to prove
that
i'm worthy
of
being
your
daughter

A remembering moment filled with a bit of regret wishing id done this or said that with a feel all I wanted was for you to see me. Awesome work!

Powerfully written Circe. Reminding me of the off-again, on-again relationship with my own
daughter. When she was little she thought of me as being so big. Now that she's big she
thinks of me as somewhat smaller. I understand the change in moods but never the geometry of it.

good work,
dana

So sad...and bittersweet. You really hit hard with this one in terms of drama and emotiona conflict. I read this three times, and each time the image became clearer and more disturbing to the heart...and I praise you for that.

You have a great way of getting your thoughts across through poetry.

Thank you. You have said in just a few incredibly heartfelt words all a child ever needs to say.


Love, Beccy.

beautiful. pure. exquisitely painful.

All it takes is a moment to remember how mortal we all are to remind us how fragile, how delicate, how utterly necessary the ones we love are to us...even when we are angry, especially when we are angry, loved this one Circe. I hope they are ok, better yet, I hope you are merely stretching.

Yes indeed, I entirely agree with jacob, welcome back Circe.
All Good Things, Neville
