It’s such a profound truth…in so few words

Truth!!

Im reminded of the old adage…if it seems too good to be true, it probably is. Goes right back to your other poem…gotta read the fine print. Believe the lies, trust the cardboard cut out caricature, you get what you deserve. Hitting nails on the head with a jack-hammer, as usual, my friend

hello dearest Damian karma always has her way well said I am depressed it feels heavy this poem great write 💕

“Been swindled under some false pretense”, def felt that line.
Nice penned my friend.

“grass is dead on the other side”. The older I get the more I feel that. Great ink.

Damian, I read and reread your poem. Took me into the heart of chasing rainbows and the stark reality that often is at the other side. Superbly crafted poem.

That hits with a quiet force—like courage stitched from trembling threads. The contrast between silence and the mask of bravery unveils a moment of deep vulnerability, almost like a portrait of someone holding themselves together just enough to get by. It carries the weight of all the things left unsaid when fear takes the reins.

I think that open vulnerability is a great strength, in a similar vein to how admitting ignorance is actually a sign of great intelligence. It’s easy to melt when you feel more than most…,most people wish they could burn like you.

Powerfully penned, Daniel. Another incredible write my friend. Appreciate you.

Damian

Daniel this is magnificent. My eyes were riveted to the screen as your tale unfolded. A work of dark literary quality that was incredible to read. Truly a publishable story. Knowing this is just a chapter in your book amazes me. Truly fantastic story telling.

Terrific write Willow….very very good.🙏

All I have is a pen, girl, no sword. But what do they say? The pen is mightier than the sword?

The opening of this with the whispering was perfect. I can feel your words through the music nice melding.

Bella. Bravissima! 🌼

Powerfully penned, Willow. Into the book it belongs! The arrangement worked nicely with the words, whispers well placed, the piano was also a great choice. Amazing work my friend, excellent execution. Appreciate you.
