This does have a positive feel to it.
You never know, sometimes acknowledging someone who’s struggling could impact their day in a positive way.
One could only hope!-

I think that too often people know it’s a mask, but they want to believe it’s reality. Because having to see what makes them uncomfortable is more than they’re willing to take on. So we paste on the smile and say we’re fine, and they eagerly choose to believe it so they don’t have to acknowledge the truth. I love that the message in this is to see beyond the surface

It is impressive how you end the sentence with a rhyme and it flows so smoothly. then ending it with “The bastards have to throw you to the wolves”
I enjoyed this-

It’s like you’re damned if you do – damned if you don’t.
It’s got lots of energy plus wolves too!
Enjoyed the read!-

Perfect ending. Say it again so I can hear how wrong the recount is. Very realistic and draws you into the moment.

I’ll take it! I don’t do many rhymers much anymore, some are older that I edit a bit. But, I wanted something in here that is a strong message for the testament to love, etc. Thanks Peter.

This is so good. I mean,,,I love the flow of it

Hey Fia! I hear you may meet up with Del next month! What! That’s awesome!
I do have a slight burp in the meter in a couple of lines. But I didn’t see a quality edit that I liked, when I tinkered with it. So it stays. I was following the path of action and result moreso, in the progression, so the meter has to have a burp to maintain what i wanted to say. Yeah?
Thank you for the positive vibes!

Beautifully penned, Mark. Another excellent write with clever wordplay and outstanding storytelling my friend. I concur with Fia, it has a rhythm and a flow to it. Amazing read as always. Appreciate you.

I know you love to rhyme, so I actually had that in mind when posting it. I mean, I can, but it’s harder for me because I lean more towards a storybook approach nowadays. Good or bad, it’s what I feel comfortable doing.
I appreciate it, Damian. Rhyme on!

Talk about manifesting…this is a solid BOOM in the way of rhythm, movement, and expression. And here y’all are now…still living that hoped for day. 😊

I like a boom ! Who doesn’t. LOL. I know this write has a slight question of aggressive undertones at the beginning. I actually reworded it to calm the idea that it was a forceful thing. But, I wanted to capture the feeling of angst and impatience, so hopefully that is what is seen.
Thank you Willow. Me and Del are hanging in there, with our long distance relationship. We do get together four or five times a year, depending on work schedules, etc. One day I will be there permanently, probably less than a year. No, for sure!
It’s worth the wait. We are a great couple!

I was smiling so much reading this that my heart ached!
You are everything I hoped you’d be plus more.
I also remember this picture! You used it on DUP too!How blessed I feel at this moment, so many years later.
Remembering all the darkest of nights
and the glow of every early morning
Together bound in a discovery of words
Describing how you completely loved me:)Love you!!

I love you.
We took a huge chance, huh. Especially you, flying for the first time!
I dunno, baby, I just knew it was special. You are rare! Writing is a window, whether we mean to open it or not. And I am a great reader. From our messages, then emails, then video calls, then in person, it all went so smooth and natural. Because it was meant to be.
We deserve happiness. And true love. You are incredible.

Thank you Tim. I don’t mess with rhyming ones much anymore. But when I do, I want them to be as good as I can make them. I appreciate it when someone lets me know that the efforts are worth it.
