Dear Sickness

Dear Sickness,
Leave this place
I'm not ready to be a plot of land
Can you vanish so I can recover?
And become myself again

    Recover and discover the newness of being. I love the thought of being whole again. And the fact that you command the presence.

    I also liked it that this poem allows the reader so many ways of interpretation.... be it a physical sickness or one of the heart. Either way it speaks the reader - such a genuine plea here. And without an adjective - well done.

    Thank you for your entry.

    hmmm...not sure if this piece is talking to one's body or one's external source of misery, a corruptive lover perhaps.
    but interesting to see this general enough to view it both ways.

    thank you for entering
