A Space Between
My # 27 for National Poetry Month
there is an arid piece of land between us.
devoid of tears,
a place of struggle,
where unassailable truths
draw out jagged lines of delineation
separating the us of us.
Tears stop short,
blinded by the need to see,
accept or reject
the recognition of who we are
and who we are not.

Audrey,
You ability to put thoughts I know I have into such powerful lines of poetry continue to awe an amaze me. Voted up and shared.
Blessings,

Sometimes it takes very little to begin that separation, then it cascades ever wider. Well said.
Very profound and introspective Audrey.
Who are we when no-ones looking, assailed by smooth and jagged thoughts alike and could the history of the protagonist in the verse prove to be the blind-spot of his or her future?
Warm Regards;
R.Q.

This is relationship gold, Audrey.
Audrey, I am always filled with inspired awe when reading your poetry. Simply stunning and exquisite! I am such a fan.
Wow! Expressed this space between so beautifully, Audrey!
Indeed our egos and self pride can create that distance....

Thank you for reading this Faith Reaper! I hope you are well!
This is absolutely beautiful, voted up, shared, and more.
Expressed real and very insightful poetry.
You are going to need a vacation for poetry month. I do not see anyone else trying to ring emotion from their souls on a daily basis. That is much to challenging.
Audrey this was excellent.. period
