    • I don’t think he can mentally take it but he is showing on the outside that he is brave.

    • Yes. He is scared and wants the people he oversees to think he is tough. The next part (10) is going to be the last one for a while. I will come back to this story in a few months.
      Thanks for reading and commenting.

      Regards

    Hide and seek

    On some days I want to tell you everything Where I was What I did What I felt I like you seeing me And the resonance On other days I want to hide in the bathroom for hours And ignore you When you call my name.

    • taking its breath away with my passion to live
      greeting the sour with the sweet
      very powerful Crimsin Like this line alot

    • Powerful and deeply raw. I love how this begins with pain almost having a personality of its own, trying to seduce the speaker into surrender, but gradually turns into a declaration of survival. “Taking its breath away with my passion to live” really stood out to me—it completely reverses who holds the power. The ending beautifully captures resilience: accepting both the sour and the sweet, yet refusing to bow. 🖤

      • hello lovely poetess thank you graciously for such a giving comment…it uplifted me I was faced with my own mortality lately I didn’t know if I had the strength for a serious surgery but I did…I love life and chose to stay even given the state of things I was thinking of your poem and thinking a lot of people reason I won’t live long enough to suffer current descions but your righ our children will… beautiful work ❤️
