The Blinding




paralyzing emotions,
they cloud the visionary aspects
of judging the day

you are left in altered ruins
trying to decipher
the good from the bad

but it is not in haste,
no matter what is said,
the pain has purpose,
no matter how sad

and you will survive,
stronger,
smarter,
alive


Author notes

Prompt is below


scarlet moonbeams
swims in her eyes
like the color of nocturnal poem
bleeding like flesh wounds....Sweet Sorrow
