Sharp Shards of Morning

 Forever Autumn REPOST Fragility of the Orchid Flower Jesting, Taunting Like a Rose ... Healing Rain...
It just renews the ache
The happier times before
Are now empty and slain
Memories they are all
Where ever I turn and glance
Every corner every angle
Stupefied in a trance
Eyes heavy with heartache
Lids bleeding ruby drops
Insanity, a moment of madness
My heart just wants to stop
Words uttered not in silence
Thoughts numbed in shock
Loneliness and searching
Haunted I take stock
Eyes mirrored facing backwards
Do I even understand?
The heartache and destruction
Caused by my own hand!
Will I ever defeat my demons?
Creeping along nights’ edge
Upon sharp shards of morning
Do I want it… no rather be dead!
Oh, I know this feeling... all to well. You strike a mighty blow with your quill - may you continue to bleed your beauty upon the page for us, yet not at the expense of your life and your sanity. -- Jeff
You'll make it and teach others to do the same! Indigos are a special breed, both cursed and blessed by their very being and insight

A superbly emotive and meaningful introspective poetic creation, Elga. Thank you for sharing this gift. Love, peace, and strength to you.
Sounds like something painful is happening. Hope its just a very vivid image in the poem.
Wonderful poem, Elga
Angst driven but beautifully expressed piece this Elga, excellent
Oh, how intense but beautifully expressed. Hope it's just great poetry.
SHARP SHARDS OF MORNING glitters with a brilliant examination of the inner self in one its most powerful and yet most vulnerable modes, dragged into despair but steady holding on to the ultimate integrity of one's humanity. An exceptional write.
This is painful to read, Elga. Whatever has happened, know that with strength, hope, faith and forgiving you will make it through.
Such a sad poem for a beautiful picture, Elga.
Sharp, shattering poetry--hope you're okay. :(
Remember, it is through just such trials as this that we grow and become stronger than before, if we face them with truth and keep hope alive...Superb poetry!
Love, and best wishes for resolution,
A powerful and insightful read Elga girl!!
The picture reflects the mood.
The angst is very powerful.
The line caused by my own hand. That's the healing. Most go into denial..
Truly sad, and a truly sad poetic ending here, Elga.
Powerful and insightful Elga, this haunts with its pain, excellent.
A touching write, chin up, head high, look those demons in the face and send them packing.
We often look too harshly at ourselves and the problems we are centered in. This write to me at least exemplifies that. Well put together and very soul searching write.
Gripping piece of poetry here. Soul-searching is never a pleasant endeavor, but a necessary one for our mental health. Very well-written.
A poignant write that cries to be resolved.
