It occurs to me
that caring can be
one-sided.
That common courtesy
isn't a common.
That genorosity of time
isn't reciprocated.
It occurs to me
the weak of character
feed on others
or forget
there is more than "I".
It occurs to me
this isn't anything new,
that death of soul
is planted
where it hurts the most.
In the center of a life,
it strangles hope,
murders insight,
knifes thoughts...
it occurs to me
things are hopeless,
and I feel helpless, yet,
mind's crash subsides...
the question is,
can it regain peace?

so good, so good it held a mirror up ...and I ...oh, yes, there is hope and you are proof...to read you ..oh, and you know what?
that awful old 'doubting-myself-limbo-of-unworth'...oh, sometimes, well...It just is ..in your case...well, you wouldn't believe me if you were in it, but...
you are quite a writer, look at how much honesty and thought you've provoked with your gifts, Ms. Poet!

This piece came about after, yet again, a willingness to read and reply to new poets at my home poetry site, day after day, I always hated for poems to have 0's beside them, so I would read and try to comment, but, when I would post something, sometimes I would wait and wait and, yep, wait somemore...pissed me off one night so I penned this. That's what I love about AD, someone always replies quickly, not leaving me in the doubting-myself-limbo-of-unworth. Thank you to all who read and reply to my modest attempts, it really does help to "feel" I really am okay, that I can write...something that touches chords, like a piece of music touches inside. :) Peace, and joy of words to you all!!
