RELAPSING....REMITTING

RELAPSING....REMITTING

A Poem by Miss Sharon

Sorrow that comes and goes...but mostly stays.

It comes and it passes...but sometimes it stays.
Remorse and privation, connecting the maze.
Each day is a rerun of pain and regret.
I miss him...I need him, yet shadows are set.

The gaze in the mirror was not meant to be.
A life with it's meaning is not meant for me.
I loathe it and push it but yet it holds strong.
This can't be my mission...for everything's wrong!

The world keeps revolving and spins its own way,
But I must be leaving...I've no more to say.
Please do not deter me, my mind has been made.
I've readied the moment...too long I have stayed!

So please don't be angry, it's not about you.
I know that you've offered to change what you do.
But hope and belonging have parted from me.
It really won't matter if I am set free.

Hi Sharon, this sorrowful write does wring out the sadness from my heart. I hope this is fiction. It is a deep piece of painful poetry that sings deep into the heart, reaching within the depths of those darker emotions. The pain is deep within this write. I love the honest content. Have a wonderful Thursday. Hugs always....Mike.

This was written when I was going through a VERY deep depression after the death of my only son. Time does help to heal but the pain will always remain. Thanks for your kindness. ~Sharon

Your expression here Sharon really reaches the heart of this reader. Losing hope surely sinks the soul. I sincerely wish this poem is a fictional write because it is heart wrenching. Beautifully penned as always with lovely rhythm and rhyme.

Hello, Miss Sharon! :)
I hope you are well. This tells a sad story; made up, I hope.
This poem is beautiful, effortless reading, exquisite rhythm, and a touching theme.
What other compliments can I give you? Haha
I'm not very good at reading poetry. I tend to get stuck on metaphors and poetic syntax, and in turn lose the rhythm. So, your straightforward phrasing really made this a pleasure, highlighting the rhythm for me. Thanks for sharing.

Resonating with all in these tethered days of thoughts finding no means of escape and going from a whisper to an all consuming numbness of being the only thought capable, which grow into haunting a mind into submission.
All things must pass, but it doesn't make it any easier, does it?
