    Lady of Sorrow (Preface: The Nightmare)

         Before we sped off on our death-ride, the full moon shone through the windshield of Billy’s red Ford pickup, which was idling in the hazy chill of an early spring night in front of our buddy Taylor’s...

    In Retrospect

    Is there something I haven’t seen yet in life? Is it something that will be revealed to me? Is this life one of perceptual distortions? Is nothing really what it seems? All this frightens me! For if I made it this far in...

    • Life…so many questions! Are we “living” in a simulation? Not real at all, but a “player” or side character in a futuristic game based on 2025. Another theory is the multiverse. I drowned as a little girl. They revived me and I lived on. But in another realm did I die and just shift to continue on? Are any of us real?

    • Powerfully penned, Daniel. Incredible write my friend, human nature has a twisted side. Appreciate you.

    Alone

    I am alone. I have been for a long time. I don’t know what friendships are like anymore.   I am alone with all these ghosts of my past! Memories that I cannot tell were real or imagined.   I am alone with no...

    • Well I can’t say I relate exactly because I’ve always enjoyed more alone time than the average person, but there’s definitely a point where it isn’t what you want or need anymore. There is some value in learning to be by yourself but it’s still not always fun. I liked the repetition, really helped drive the point home.

    • You could have wrote that about me. So relatable! Awesome!!!

    • Great write Daniel

      I’m alone most of the time but seldom lonely.Lots of people fill their days but are still incredibly lonely.You can’t run from loneliness so best bet is just to make friends with it…works for me.
      I guess loneliness is different for everyone.

    • Powerfully penned, Daniel. I can relate to this write my friend. I like being alone at times, but I’ve went spans without interaction when on a drinking bender, I started to unravel a little. It was a deep rabbit hole. Excellent work. Appreciate you.

    Here, to break the days of the now

    • We have no choice but to be here ..

      Poets write sometimes in order to avoid Last Rites

      BIG
      LIKE

      Read twice
      Hit me different second time around as the bartender was calling for last round ..

    • Like PoetSpeak, I read this one twice. It has the feeling of a bell rolling in the mist. That question at the end…if you get an answer, I would like in on the knowledge

    • Powerfully penned, Cipher. This is a deep write my friend, lots of layers. Appreciate you.

    • ‘Light lies
      in
      bright
      eyes. Captured in forward and backward enrapture. The light
      of
      life. The seeming meaning
      in the
      dreaming. ‘
      A core of words needing a home, thoughts laid, meanings personal yet to share. Takes hold on the second read.
