sadness – Noellie's Place

Colors in a jar

My heart does not agree

It breaks at what has been shown

Deep breaths

Slowly exhale

Savoring what lingers

In the air

soothing words of comfort

a fast beating heart

slowly connects

rhythms of two

become one pulse

As a canopy spread over delicate leaves

wilting growth reached for speckled light

finding its way through

Even on the worst days there are the best moments.

Staring at ghosts through a phantom window
Unwilling to turn away
Allowing the air to be taken from room

Chances to thrive were tossed aside

Cold hearts numbed the one they made

WHERE do you find comfort sleeping on a bed of nails

Acceptance: Willingness to tolerate a difficult or unpleasant situation.
