Safety Check

2/25/25

Holding the pieces of me together like shattered glass

Bruises mark the futile attempt at a reconnection... 

Reflections on the surface 
Like a stone skipping across a pond
finding it's resting place at the bottom where it drowns endlessly...

Blood stains to serve as proof of my existence but this changes not
the composition of fragments 
further cementing my toil...

I climb to embrace 

Yet still come face to face with the end of a chase and a dream further lost...

Assailed by what failed and still trailed
by regrets 

Now obsessed I confess I was never so blessed...

Yet the dream lingers on or the nightmare beyond

So like armor I temper my soul to be strong... 

For the darkness still lurking for the demon yet smirking for the me that's still hurting...

I will still carry on

I'm so pleased that I happened to be here at this moment.....I'm always so
impressed by your ability to carve a rhyme scheme into seemingly profound
thought processes.....the truth is....you write from the true heart of the poet....daring readers to understand you....to comprehend....to relate....I have to say dear poet brother....your words in this piece are so moving...so honest....the pain of being a human being,,,,the suffering that simply being alive inherently manifests in so many ways......I love your ability my friend....I am ever your admirer......ALL STARS!!.......LOVE & ROCKETS!!......T xo  )

Tony I can't tell you enough how glad I am that you found me today! You always understand my intentions well. When the heart is tired and the mind is active I return to the poets who like family welcome me always. The creative outlet and comments like these always make it worth it. I missed you man I hope all is well and life rewards you richly. We ourselves are indeed the heart of poetry pumping life into the veins of the cosmofunnel and cosmos beyond brother. Thank you for gracing my work. Nothing but love my friend!
