Genesis



In the end,
words were scarce
Pain was immense
Tragedy was real
Moments were dark
and there was this
urge to disappear

A series of unfortunate events
that shaped a life of indifference
and letting go things,
without much fight
without much fuss.

Can a genesis ever be an ending? Play on meanings or beginning of new life??

Interesting title, the antithesis of the poem’s theme... or is it?
Is this about birth... possibly. Any poem that sets me to thinking, I value. I value this one.

I like the way you’ve created a tone that seems dark but somehow hopeful. Anyway that’s my impression. Nice use of evocative words.
