I like how this moves through doubt and self-interrogation without rushing to answers. The questions feel earned, not rhetorical.

Thanks so much for reading and your kind words, H. So glad you connected with the write my friend. Too many close calls, I know the feeling as well. Appreciate you.

There’s a simultaneous sense of strength and uncertainty in this that drag at me. Like you know you made the right choice, but how close was it to the edge? That feeling I know all too well. If we’re not reviewing actions, we’re probably doomed to repeat them. Goes for individually as well as globally. Another layered one. Keep chasing thought, my friend. You always bring gold when you do

Love this! Skepticism is not paranoia, though gaslighters may disagree. Experience provides a roladex of patterned behaviors, and when there’s multiple red flags its no longer paranoia but an obvious truth.

You always find yourself when you don’t realize it.
23 sounded like a good year of life for you!

Beautifully penned, PG. Excellent write with a very powerful message. Writing is therapy I agree with you completely. No matter how creative I get with a poem or lyrics there is always a therapeutic quality even as simple as getting something off my chest. Very relatable piece lets me know I’m not alone in the world. Appreciate you.

When the darkness surrounds you and you think of the unthinkable remember this.
You have to be alive to find peace.Death just brings death.
Now you take care and keep writing.

🙏💋🙏

This is powerful and the images and words are delicately constructed. Always move forward PG, never look back. Well written.

Great piece. There’s also a hidden but great message in here. Yes, kick your kids out of the nest. But let them know if pressure builds, if the world becomes to much, the door opens both ways and they’re always welcome. So many people commit the acts that they do, endure the abuse that they do because they have no where’s to return to

Your muse has the answer of your being, so continue to let the words flow and live as you dream…but don’t any wooden nickels, are flying monkeys.

Beautifully penned, Amethyste. Excellent write my friend. Appreciate you.
