Poem -
Jump
Life Mountain
I know everybody’s – looking for something
I know nobody – stays the same
And I`m stuck - in a concrete jungle
Where no one - knows my name
Scale a mountain
Ropes got slack
Can`t see the top
Sweaty hands - grip the rock
Fingers blistered – trembling dammit
Feel forgotten – buried toy - in a sand pit
Stretching lines – Like my arms that grope
The wall to find a slither of hope
Eagles soar.
Whistling “Heaven’s door”
I can`t keep up.
This hell no more.
Jump.

Vivid write Max...rich in imagery but speaking of hopelessness...great write 💕
Better to keep the message vivid than bore people with my problems lol XD! Use poetry as a word dump anyway so I`m not as dark as it seems... Thanks for your support though Marion. Always means so much. Kind regards. Max
God...I do too...it's such a great release...no I meant your poem was rich in emotion Max and that for me beats imagery...it is a cracking write 🤗
