some of the hurt
let it spill onto the earth
let it spill onto the pages.

Would you see it, feel it, own it?

If you could swim in the depth
of my souls water,
like rivers wild
and raindrops glisten

Would you swim upstream, for the length of the journey?

If I poured it out.
Gathered it in a vase,
added roses to it
would you just see the thorn?

Or the beauty of the flower that comes with it.

If I poured it out

Topic: EmotionalPoetry

If I could tip some out
some of the hurt
let it spill onto the earth
let it spill onto the pages.

Would you see it, feel it, own it?

If you could swim in the depth
of my souls water,
like rivers wild
and raindrops glisten

Would you swim upstream, for the length of the journey?

If I poured it out.
Gathered it in a vase,
added roses to it
would you just see the thorn?

Or the beauty of the flower that comes with it.

I agree with the last person who commented...this was lovely. I like the questions being posed, they're very thought-provoking and you can just *so* sympathize with the speaker of the poem. You've written a very beautiful piece, it was very descriptive and I found myself enjoying it. Nicely done.

I was charmed by the beauty of this piece.
I guess I've been washed by some of the water in your soul now

artist . . . lovely work my friend . . .

I've seen the vase, the bloom, the prickly thorns, and they, together, are glaringly beautiful, as are the words and the message composed within this write. Your talent is astonishing! This, so far, is my favorite from you.
