Some days
I can’t
It’s just
So hard
I mean
I just
Can’t take
Much more
What’s this
What for
Why now
Now what
And then
I try
Have tried
Have failed
Have cried
Have smiled
Next try
What gives
Who knows
What now
Stay strong
Un til
I can’t
No more

so true and real.
You are beautiful. As is your writing. Love “Un til”
Thanks Catherine.
Jenni, I was inspired to post some poetry (which I NEVER do) after reading yours!
We’ve all had those days. This is a wonderful write. I enjoyed the terseness of it.
Thanks, Rigel! And thanks for stopping by the blog
You capture a feeling I know only too well . . . And the underlying rhythm so perfectly expresses the bouncing emotions, back and forth/ back and forth.
Lovely, open, beautiful, and rhythmic. So glad you posted it.
So true… words we often say!
Tracey – thanks for letting us in to read your poem. yes, you can!! write poetry.
I liked your poem. It’s inspirational at the end and also the fact that its your own poem. It gives courage for someone else to try poetry. I nominate you for the Inspirational Blog Award. I know you have already gotten several awards so you can add this to your list.
If interested, there’s a post on my blog about it.
Thanks, Pixie! I appreciate it very much
