Been there Done that
I hear your emotions
feel them rolling over me
and this scene seems
familiar.
The last one was like you a bit
Scarred, bent, broken,
I realized too late
perhaps.
The first,
I picked up her pieces
but I missed a few
I unbent her,
just
not enough.
It all seems to be
being replayed,
this scene.
My life on
a loop
Let me off
this Merry Go Round
I didn't buy a
ticket for the same
ride I was on.
Let me off
before I
throw up.

Hi Philip. I also like most of the people you listed under your influences on your profile. The Wheel of Time would be my number one high fantasy epic. If you are unfamiliar, I highly recommend The Inheritance Cycle by Christopher Paolini, which has the greatest conclusion of any fantasy series I've ever read. Your poem has a feel of honest cathartic venting and is relatable. Thank you for being here with us.

This is late response but thank you none the less... appreciate your words immensely. I will look into that author and book you mentioned. :)

No worries I have only been popping into site here and there lately. Awesome I know you'll enjoy that series.
