In Quitting

Brief yet complex, hopefully these poems speak for themselves

In quitting,

            One lays one’s power down

            To weakness

The power exists

But the weak

            Have lost recognition

So this caught my eye… probably because it could be debated. Perhaps one could simply get frustrated and quit, not willing to try or recognize their own strength to overcome. But maybe their are times when quitting is the best thing for the soul… hmmmm 😊 Nice write full of questions!

[Brad Dehler]

Thank you Susan! Precisely. This is the fulcrum, the indecisive middle between that time. Before the label of champ or quitter or stubborn or wise

I totally agree with Susan, here. She gat it! Round table questions! These words here should make top debated review in its innocence. Good writes hides in unexpected penmanship!


@B, champ or quitter, stubborn or wise....a fine line in between. Perhaps a thin line. One tend to tilt the balance according to the situation. How do you know!

This piece intrigues me!

[Brad Dehler]

So thrilled this piece intrigues you!!! Thank you so much for reviewing!! Yes, a Fine Line in between, a thin line to the dismayed, depending on our situation for sure.

A lot said in the words Brad. To give-in, to give-up. Is hard to do. Thank you for sharing the amazing poetry and your thoughts.
