Sharing Burdens


Read between the lines,
You’ll see the stress in my life.
These pressures break me.


Burdens of life’s path
weigh heavy upon my heart.
Will you share this pain?


Memories beckon me,
bringing tears of bittersweet.
Please, just hold me close.

    A beautiful piece that weeps the anguish of wanting comfort when life becomes too much.
    It has been too long since I have visited your poetry and I am so moved by the way you can pour such feelings into these forms. You always seem to use the perfect words and still hold to the structure the form allows.

    Always a moving experience to read your poetry~
    Hope all is well with you

    A beautiful string of senryu. Very good flow and tone. Deep expression of emotion. Excellent word choice. A skillfully crafted piece and a most enjoyable read.

    ahh!

    congrats, you've written some haiku I enjoy and can relate to. I really like these three stanzas. I can't wait to read more of your poetry.

    Hooray! A new Allpoetry friend! I'm not sure exactly all that that entails... but I'll keep reading your stuff!

    My soul weeps for you. Somehow, another's pain runs so much deeper because there is no way to remove it. I have missed you and hope your pain will ease and life will at last favour you. This is my wish.
