shatter
tread lightly on the heart of none
when in shade of despair shelter
quell the lonely hatred
the sun shines too brightly
darkness is kinder
wherein dawn's rebuke
for midnight's daughter
weep naught for me
in my element, I do squander
days of nothing do surrender
in perpetual darkness, I see my soul's truth
the guise of an angel...no
devilkin broken inside
glass eternities lay shattered at my feet

This is stunning. The wording is impactful. For me, it’s like peering into the souls of those of us who are more introverted in nature. The darkness and isolation is where we heal, where we grow, where we truly find ourselves. So well done.

People don’t understand our introverted self. They try to suppress us from the very things that allows us to express us.

I have become more Freshly aware And amazed of the different painted lines, curves, shapes and sizes of Your ink you constantly do.
respectfully on the collaboration as well as the many Poets and poetesses. But in the last several weeks you have been a inspiration. I have been trying constantly Lately to be a bit more creative in my ink And learn the different elements of yours .

As an introvert I found this poem shouts softly to the world where love is rarely gentle enough...bravo Brenda.
