Submerged

Here, I am, still submerged in these waters.

The waters of my emotions.

When I was little, I always thought that,

eventually, they would drown,

but, now, it's obvious that they never will,

but, now, I'm starting to think, that, maybe,

it's not so bad, here,

after-all.

dear Light... our being is always surviving... with pain and sometimes happiness.
Suddenly, I am overwhelmed with pain... and it always goes away... but we never know. We hope to grow and experience more of the Beauty we have to explore. p.s. your poem is perfect for me today. softly, Pat

and that you are well.

Thank you Light… aging comes with Pain, but some days are Care-free. Amen .. Pat

Wow, I love this right so simple but write to the point, yes no smoke for the fire is not out yet because afterwards its not bad.. Thank for sharing this insight that makes us think if we got it right. Good write.

I am always gentled by these reflective perceptions and outpourings in poetry regarding these redemptions and revelations we experience; yours no less. A remarkable statement and a glorious page turned from all life worth living. Learning to swim and exist with our deeper waters, day by day... Beautiful!~
