      • That last stanza
        “And by the time it ends,
        you realize:
        you have traveled
        farther inside yourself
        than any map
        could ever show.”
        Par man that is gold

        Brilliantly penned, PAR. Another excellent write (day) my friend. This one is definitely all about the miles traveled, journeys tend to do that it seems. Amazing read with precise imagery brother, I could picture the surroundings especially the highway. Nicely done as always. That last stanza was chef’s kiss. I concur with Fia. Appreciate you.

    • April 27th – Down, Up, Along, As If Tomorrow Didn’t Exist

      April 27th begins
      down the stairs,
      all the way long,
      each step a small surrender,
      each landing a brief negotiation
      between gravity and will.

      It is a descent
      that feels older than you,
      a movement inherited
      from every fall
      you’ve ever survived.

      • Not sure I want to go inside myself that far PAR. I just might go inside so far that I see my self outside looking in. That would be a paradox, and people would say I am insane, more so than usual. So, while I enjoyed reading your poem very muchly, I think I will just sleep this 27th day of poetry away. Wake me up at 12:O1 on the 28th. (It is a…Read More

    • Not the right time

      I wandered into this strange land
      The beauty I have discovered
      With no one to hold my hand
      Only a bag and cloak to cover

      I did not expect to find
      A place to call my own
      I moved space and time
      Wanting to find a home

      Then I met you
      My world became so small
      All my world views
      Mean nothing to me at all

      If I…Read More

      • Hi

        The line i guess I can’t miss something that never occurred. Nice thankful note to someone who loved you and cared for you losing everything.
        I have seen one movie veer zhara of India and Pakistan lovers who couldn’t meet for years and they didn’t say like you said they adored each other and lived for each other.
        For a person like you it seems you don’t need love or neither the person you just fulfil dam your desire and finish it off.
        For a person like me lost hope on love andman thinking person like you who doesn’t dares and cowardly fears of few hounds that cheat for money
        Atleast I gave you hope and to many when you sincerely love do it sincerely else you like a flower crushed by people evil desire that evil dead cant hurt you.

        Jessy Jacob ❤️
        I know you will get hurt but I cant ignore for few people who love sincerely and made their life heaven loving each other. My son must also not lose hope on someone he loves.

      • Sorry fia, my head has become few hounds trash throwing whatever they want and provoking me against me to get into trap. What can I say i believed one man till now now he lost interest in achieving his love which is true. He thinks he is not anymore good.

      • I am open to get blocked or delete my account i am not going to ask your pardon. This site seems suicidal home that inspires people to die instead of living seeing few hounds crap. I am not liking it anymore.

        • This poem is of love. There are those who love and just cannot be together. Whether it be due to distance or obligations. Not all obligations are nefarious. It could be due to taking care of their families due to being the only on to provide because of an illness.
          I do not understand your hounds. I write what comes to mind and I do not expect everyone to like it. It is just my thoughts.

      • Very well written 👏

      • You know this kinda makes me think if Mark and I decided to just be pen pals.
        All the missed kisses and keeping it safe. I didn’t take this as a death or suicide?
        Sometimes we bury how we feel too because we don’t want to wreck our fantasies.
        What if it gets ruined and it ends before it even begins!

        • Thank you Adel. That’s what I was hoping people see. Sometimes It’s just not the right time 🩷
