There's no rope, just wishes for one in my mind.

Saturday, October 26, 2019

it’s like I’ve convinced myself
that a rope exists.
when really it’s just a few pathetic threads
dancing,
dangling,
waiting for me to return to them
to hold with tired, sorrowful fingers.

A rather old sounding, almost desperate, poem from a young vibrant woman.

Another succinct rendering of the willing nature of our imagination to create and learn from. Beautiful allegory. Thank you for posting.
