hey joy

Posted Feb 25, 2019 · 22 lines · 5 critiques

The world about humans
not the circumstances,
world about hearts
not the crony souls,
world about loyal distance
not the hypocrisy.

World about peace
not the waiting.

World about chances and not
what we used to be.

World about open sun
not the memories.

World about these mountain cliffs
that can shelter so many lives.

Read the rest of the poem Show less

world about broken shadows of my face
that shelter deep ocean.

World about hope
not the decisions.

And only sometimes it lasts forever.

Just only sometimes
it lasts
forever.

"and the flow is nice, and the conclusion works. The poem has a good presence. In my view these lines are much too long and break up the rhythm of the reading which has a certain pace... The world about these mountain cl…"

on The nothing from @raj
"Impressive abstract write, more comprehensible after your de-coding the abstract, bringing out the genius in you. The title fits the meaning, may be Silence Speaks could also have worked...just a thought.. Regards,"
