dolor in painted
hues of screaming red, bursting
You left me in cold.
My work:
Patheos,
The Job, The Space Between Us, Green,
The Unlikely Bounty, Straight Love, The Heart Factory, The Half Paper Moon, I am Bexley and Atonement by JMS Books
Silent Bites by Eukalypto
How does it work?
Powerful words, Melissa. I see the red heat, then cold, stark blue. This is really well done.
This was so intense and heartbreaking! Loved your poem!
I object. I did not such thing (as far as I can remember). Poignant & plaintive.
It’s hard when someone just left you in the cold dust. It’s a complete let down 😔Still sending you and your family good vibes and prayers ❤️🙏🏽

A new day passes, sun setting, the night sky radiant in its colours, She quietly watches, Silently contemplating, As the world spins on its axis.
