Tribute
Sometimes I will say too much or too little
Hope they don’t think I’m self absorbed or fickle
Truth is I have found sanctuary
Amongst fellow poets here on DUP
Truth is I can hardly believe
Cut myself out for so long from society
Is this real? How could I have not known?
A place like this exists, my heart grows
With every write, the darkness is decomposed
A world to which I’ve never been exposed
Stumbled upon this place when I had no other option
A happenstance I embrace with open arms, I am adopted
Thank you all for touching my heart, mind, and soul
Shake my head looking back, was on the verge of ending it all ;
But here I find refuge, connection, and humor
Such like-minded expressions allure
A breath of fresh air...
I shall endure...

Well my friend, I can hardly believe it’s been 7 years since I joined DU. I happened to notice I never replied to your comment here! You’ve always been an inspiration and a much appreciated peer. I hope you are well.

what a beautiful tribute and I know what this feels like I found DUP when I was at a very low ebb - it has nourished, supported and taught me ever since - not to sound too crazy but DUP was my salvation :-)
excellent write - I love couplets it's a great style :-)

"Truth is I have found sanctuary / Amongst fellow poets here on DUP" -- hehe looks like I'm onto something here ;) what is "crazy" anyway, in a world of riddles & rhyme, but an imaginary line! <3

Glad you found DUP. It has been a saving grace for me. The poets here have brought me back to the light. Some of us are broken, but in the most beautiful ways. We are not less because of what we have been through, but more, and together we make a masterpiece.
Thank you for the write.

Kind Sunwolfe! I am -deeply- moved by your words!
I am seeing more and more,
a web of intermingled souls
here, a system of human reality
in humor and horror
and all things in between~
I am much obliged for your gracious feedback tonight <3

Who says we can't reach across the ether
or the weee ponds between continents?
I've been here for over a month now
and have found deeper friendship here
than ever before in my life :)

I'm glad you found a place that shines a light and gives you perspective. Poetry is such a therapeutic process for both the mind and the soul.
