Endless Cycles

we've been here before

standing under this downpour

caustic rants and needless revivals

of lectures and judgement

once thought long forgiven

and forgotten

and yet,

here we sit in the midst of it all

this pressure

this turmoil

it never stops.

and to think 

I thought for certain there was sunlight

peeking with confidence

through all those long branches

of low hanging fruit

too much for the taking

I thought we knew better

and had moved way beyond this

restless

revival

of classic

betrayal

it never changes...

"...too much for the taking..." and taking for granted, the short-sightedness of love never fails to astound.
I like this one very much.

Thank you, Tony...

It was written from a place of emotional pain... but now I have clarity...

And am moving forward.

I trust all is well.

Is clarity for one view just a lens cap for the next?
All good in the hood Alisa

Greetings from the Emerald Isle dear friend

HI Tony,

The Emerals Isle... sounds beautiful....

I am better now, thank you. Working on a new piece I will post soon.

Looking forward to reading your thoughts if you're so inclined.

Sending ((hugs)) across the Pacific from this island, somewhere in the deep, blue ...

Aloha, Alisa.
I could feel this, and understand the thought behind it, at least so far as what I read into it.
it provokes a moodiness that matches a rainy day.
I like writing that leaves something for the imagination to ponder.
Good write.

Thanks Ted...

I will be by soon. I've been recovering from a car accident in December.. but am much better now.
