Balm

Days subdued

Promises of sorrow.

The ne'er do wells nature

paints a less brilliant hue.

The mundane wreckage

of the casual life.

Causation sans relevance

to the outward/inward connections.

A gentle toxicity 

deep in the meat.

Parables sting less

than knives in the dark.

-----

Gentle friend, take my hand

hold it.

What is strength 

in the face of forever?

Bravo For This Balm

"What is strength/in the face of forever?" It is lines like this that mostly comprise the reasons why I write poetry (or try) :D
