      Sometimes

      There are times when things should be said Things should be done It is met with silence   Then there are times things are done Without thought Automatically   Sometimes things are said because it is felt...  Sometimes thing happen because it could not be held back.   But there...

      • Powerfully penned, Fia. Excellent write with lots of layers my friend. Nicely done as always. Appreciate you.

        Damian

      • Thank you Gus for keeping up with me. xoxo

      • Chère F.,
        Love it that you post more often.
        And I read all of them.

        My favorite sentence in this poem is:

        Sometimes thing happen because it could not be held back

        Wish I had thought of that. It tells me that I can’t possibly control everything. A comforting thought!

        I hope your Tuesday will be happy and full of inspiration.
        Warm greetings, Gus

      • hello beautiful Fia this is a profound write ❤️

      • No way! You gotta have hope always!
        Old story: There were two boys, one was a pessimist and the other an optimist. They were both put in a barn full of horse crap for a day. At the end of the day, the old man opened the door to see how the boys were doing. The pessimist was far back in the corner, on his tiptoes, complaining about all the shit and the smell. While the optimist was crouched down, frantically flinging the horse crap all over the place. The man asked that boy what was he doing. The boy said “With all this fresh horse shit, there’s gotta be a pony in here somewhere!
        But anyway, your write is on point with many of the days for us all. An accurate description of the struggle for basic sanity, at least!

        • That was funny. I am hopeful. My poems come to me from listening to music, news etc.. then I start musing over things. Thank you Styxian;))

      • Thank you Vision;))

      • That’s cool. I actually get much of my motivation from reading. it’s the words tumbling around in my head that create little scenarios that I build from. A lot! Music sets a mood, though, yes. Can’t live without it!

      Love Sonnet LXXXIV

      You grab my hand, lead
      me onto the floor, spin me
      into your embrace, and sway
      us into the music.

      The music slows, you pull me
      closer, our bodies feel the warmth
      of the rhythm and the natural passion
      of bump and grind. It’s an

      older tune we are dancing
      to, one that held us in our
      youth, and you look at m…Read More

      • Short but said so much. Just walk it off. Something to keep in mind.

      • Terrific little write.

        Having dealt with the darkness of depression myself I can feel your friends soul just aching for peace.

        Bloody scary but the only way out of suffering is in….give your friend a hug from me.
        🙏🙏🙏

        • The only way out is in…truth there. Unfortunately my friend needs help finding a light source at this point. Too deep and too dark and there’s no exit found. Or rather, only a final exit. Thank you, Peter

      • When my friend explained the things they were unable to get done because of the debilitating depression, the doctor actually asked “Why not? Why don’t you just don’t it?” My friend responded (quite rightly, I thought) with “fuck you.” If they don’t understand they judge. When they judge, it adds to the damage. I don’t know why it’s so hard for people to just be kind to each other. Thank you, my friend
