Dolor
Sometimes pain grows a root
in the forest of the soul.
The branches of my nerves
are gnarled excrutiations,
greedy with their toll.
My heart is an endangered species
living in the painful tree.
With wicked black leaves,
that tremble with the hurts
of alternate eternities.

Aww. Thank you so much. That made my morning. That poem is how I'm truly feeling.
Truly had one of the worst days of my life yesterday, so to turn it into a poem that you enjoyed, makes me feel happy.
Thx Lil, ❤️

Love the metaphors and the way you've taken your personal turmoil (hugs for that very bad day you said you've experienced) and used it as fuel for your expressive and palpable ink, here... That's exactly the kind of poetry that I am drawn to. It's when it's a kind of purging that a soul requires to release the steam and the angst, and you feel THAT in each word written...
Hopefully today is a new day with a tiny bit of relief felt your way.
Thank you for bravely sharing yourself with us, dear lady. Hang in there, breathe and remember that we all need to cut ourselves some slack sometimes.
Sending out wishes for healing and patience all around...
Much love,
🌹💙-B

Thank you so much for your comments and kindness. It is a little bit of a better day. I figured why not create a poem representing my pain, so it wasn't in vain.
You are the sweetest person.
I love when you read and comment on my work. It gives me the exact validation I need. 💜

It's easy to think the worst. I have my moments, believe me! With the right compost, hopefully, you will be ok & may even grow into something more beautiful than you already are! ;-)

You know, I am sad. Very sad. But not too sad to feel happiness to.
I'm happy I created something from yesterday's pain.

The opening line of “sometimes pain grows a root” is what drew me in to the write. It’s a strong image, and one I deeply relate to. I love how the metaphor transcends into ourselves, and our forests of being. I really liked the overall message presented in this poem.
I would say don’t overuse those full stops… they can hinder the overall rhythm of your piece. Maybe just something to keep in mind for the future. You of course don’t have to listen to that at all. 😇
Thank you for sharing.
