Beautifully written Zenith.

There's that old saying "what does not kill us makes us stronger" BUT as you have understood - that which we pass on strenghtens others.

You might like to check out my poems "The Survivor" and "The Legacy" which are just two of my takes on this much needing to be expressed topic. ( We feel not dissimilar)

DJ.

Excellent! It follows throughout without a bit of clutter, and holds a fine message throughout.

My qualms are in the use of elipses, as they tend to be a big poetic faux pas, and that you should revise it for commas.

Belittle, berate me old patterns die hard
spewing volcanic ashes...
I douse you with love.

Great Stanza!

You might like my poem "Vicious tongues and the Damage Done" as it somewhat parallells this work.

Z! I loved these verses. This one stuck to me: "I've traveled over hot coals
since the day I was born..."..MAN! Your literary qualities are amazing. Love your emotions on paper. Aching, hurt and a subtle "It'll be ok" is felt through out this entire piece. Very well done. I agree, very angelic attitude. Gotta love that.

Thanks,
Emilie
