but I'm iffy about that first line. The rest of the stanza is quite good.
going to leave a comment but the critic in me ...
is in denial~ (wouldn't that be me?) <grin>
loved the poem...
that first line.
I love the first verse
This is a great poem TT..it's great to see you back.
These two verses really hit home with me.
~as truth becomes blurred by need
loss is transformed into gain
yet emptiness still fills one's heart
despite trying to wash it clean
with a flood of tears
Three thousand miles
between two realities
I carry one in each hand
which one I open depends
where I think I'm headed ~
That's just truth, plain and simple
excellent poem
welcome back
Where did you come from tt2u? Blazed in with this one. I enjoyed the language throughout. That close is excellent,
Great to see you back writing, tung!
A well-written and clever piece.
Fly
to my little corner of the universe. I should probably tell you, I am the queen here.
