To many thoughts...
To many lonely night
To many hurts...
Alcohol loosens the tongue.
Words get spoken,
that would normally not.
Another heart hurt.
The words are an arrow.
The truth pierces.
Tears course down....
Seeking, searching...
Will I ever find...
the light I seek,
the soul to share....

Bardouble29 (aka Barb) has always loved to write. Writing has proven to be a way to deal with the tough parts of life. Her poetry tends to be a little on the dark and sad side. She loves making words come alive. But she can be known to throw in poems of other venue.

I like this. I've had a period just a couple of months ago where I spent many a night in this state.
Keep the faith Barbara. Your prince will come for you. I love that poem but it makes me sad.
We all seek the source of tears, that we may quench the fire with love's soothing breeze. This was beautiful, Barb. You're doing just fine. Keep doing what you just did, each line building the idea. Take care, friend
Lord, I get this, friend.
Good poem.
I love this poetry blog. Can I submit a Haiku?? :D
We should all do at least one haiku!
Yeaaah!! Haiku!! I wrote one last week that I can share. :D
If I had a time machine, I think I would tell myself not to drink at key moments in life. Just jump back and leave a note, "Don't drink tonight, trust me." Oh well, making up is hard to do.
I just re-read this, and realized that this was me last Monday... :(
