Thanks! HI, Soul Searching indeed. Plenty

Beautiful ink, poet. Forgiveness is difficult but love always perseveres.

I appreciate the compliment. Just got more ink done actually.

This is dark. The thought of feeling empty
really pulls in this one.
It's always awkward to tell someone great write
when there's an internal struggle going on but here it goes:)
Beautiful closing - all I saw was a red tub full of roses:)

Thank you for the sincere consideration of one's struggle because it is indeed one.  It's Dark yes. A "could have been but never has been" Type of thought. Thank you for the feed back it's honest and well appreciate.

Very emotive n tender piece....

Thank you. Dark times breeds creativity

What a painfully beautiful piece this is, your last line is simply heartwarming.

this aching piece of poetry

Enduring & forgiving, that's a deep love. Thank you for entering & good luck in the comp
