Residue Truth




 Residue Truth


Our spinning world

blasting through
the Universe

littered with 

jagged pieces
of broken souls


shattered dreams
of poet warriors

devastation
in the ashes
of
lost aspirations

overwhelming
carnage


we tip toe
around
daily


as not to
be stained

by the
charred
memories

of our
sorry

history

  3. We endure our own pain mostly without even noticing that we endure. When we are aware of the pain of others we may feel inadequate, guilty even. If that is so then we will do what we can to help to the best of our ability an d that is all we can do.

    1. So very true that so often by helping others we help ourselves
