• The value of mortality.

    If given the choice between terminal cancer or immortalality, I would choose cancer everytime. Imagine waking up every day for ever and having to make the bed,do the washing,get the groceries,tend to family,go to work....sounds like hell to me. I'll take...

    • I think of immortality from another side of what you’re saying. If you’re immortal but only you…imagine constantly being around to witness the fall of everyone you know & care about? No thank you. I’m with you on this one

    Candles Bleed Too

    Candles too are mortal when alight. When their wicks are cold and black, candles will desire that flame in their life.   When candles bleed like us, it requires love accompanied with pain. That punishing, silent cry of dripping wax...   That bleeding light we all crave, yet...

    Something I've Become

    Dark days and bright nights. That's the life of a sorrowful poet.  Away from the darkening daylight... into the light of the night I rejoice! Night owl, indeed!  I've risen like the full moon and descended like the sun. My soul bleeds ink onto the page. And...

    • hello dearest Daniel I feel you on this one great write 💕

      • Brenda, my writing is getting more sorrowful, I feel. Darker, not depressingly, but hauntingly beautiful. You know me by now, I ramble in comments, haha. Nearly four months off my medication now. My writing has evolved somehow recently, I can’t explain it. Thanks Brenda.

    • Sometimes we express ourselves with a cloak of darkness, but there’s usually a deep feeling heart behind it.
      Thank you for sharing a small part of your world.

      🌹

    • Powerfully penned, Daniel. Your writes have layers and depth my friend. Appreciate you.

    • Awww, Fia =(

      How poignantly vivid your pen has laid its sorrows’ disappointments upon our hearts … so many times we’ve gone through such relatably plaintive ache, yet, your poetic emotion expresses it all so vividly, as though it could be any one of us experiencing your own moments of disquiet.

      “Love is a demon’s creation.
      It obscures and twists the mind,
      That being in complete submergence is good.”

      Oh, yes! Nothing’s like LOVE it when it’s good, when all is wine and roses; for, love shall seek not but for its own satisfaction. It will bend and twist you, and shine and dim upon you, while holding onto those within its grip. And, there is no single answer to the question of what love really is, but I have learned that when love is in control, there are no guarantees.

      I so admire the smoothness and imagery with which you paint emotions, feeling, and thoughts upon the canvas our minds, hearts, and souls … the hallmarks of a true artist’s touch.

      Swearing we’ll never fall in-love again, our needs are far too deep not to.
      Beautiful work, Dear Poetess … thank you for sharing! ⁓ Richard🖌

      Superb artwork choice:
