For those who struggle with life...


No Easy Answers

They tell you when morning turns into day,
and when the night closes in on your heart.
They tell you most things happen this way,
and life is sane and simple, at least in part.

But, no one told you that your heart could cry
softly through every day and most every night,
And that rivers can twist and turn and run dry
like a soul that gasps and screams in complete fright.

So, I wonder how we learn the answers never said
to questions never asked or truths unspoken
Or how to rage against the sunset dripping in red,
like haunted dreams or a melody cracked and broken?

this has a beautiful rhythm and rhyme my friend! All the questions to all those unknown variations that hit us in life, are never spoken because if we knew in advance, we may never want to walk the path! that is my theory anyway and what we don't know can't hurt us, for a while anyway.

Great write.

smiling at you
