Tinted Glasses
I think I need some glasses
but my eyes are not broken
My heart is what needs fixing
I need to learn to feel
I think I need compassion
but there are others more forlorn
This world is what needs fixing
We don't need hurt, but heal
I think I need some glasses
To see and to reflect
What I see are broken shards
How can you say it's real?
i never thought glasses could
never thought glasses could be used as brilliantly as a metaphor as u've done :)
m impressed very much, i must say :)
great read, best wishes :)
The longevity of your poems seems assured,
I encourage and praise you and bless you– even when the light begins to fade. Do not relent continue.
I do not like to use the word criticize, I like to say find you own essence.
Poetry is an art it is beauty in words literally. All poetry needs to be essential. And like all art/beauty is in the eye of the beholder. When we make poetics our life, awareness of words and there meaning are in a space of resilience in the face of the undeniable and inescapable.
Once in print they are forever. Poems are not vapor trails on the wind.
Enough of my rambling…
By the way my glasses are broken too. As I wrote this they kept falling off of my nose…
Peace
