Mud

I don't recognize my own voice, the lump in my throat grows.
My spine curves to the sharp bends in the road.

Dead end.

She won't love me forever.

*Welcome to "Pure Rhymes" Thanks for joining, great to have you...!*

My own spine practically made me wince in pain from the pressure of this write... A dead end, perhaps... Who is that stranger in the mirror... A powerful invocation of demented-self...

I'm not very good, not sure what I can bring to your group.

Looking forward to participating though.

[apennylate]

Well... I shan't argue with you, but you are good enough to earn a gold star in my book...! Hah

[Bonnie Paige]

Not every road dead ends. Take another road and write about it's beginning. It made me think!

[Xuru]

It does for me.

[Bonnie Paige]

Your picture makes me think you are very young and a long life ahead of you. Many roads to travel before the last dead end road. That is life a guaranteed endless New roads

I love how this poem is simple but so effective and filled with emotion. You really grasp the idea of love and how things never last forever and I really really enjoyed reading this.

[Xuru]

Glad you got something out of it.

[Mario Vitale]

Wow this is a very long poem I must say filled with emotions keep it up now

[Xuru]

More like short but thanks.

[Natehy]

This short write, encourages me to read more, if there were so... it has so much potential. i loved it Xuru. Keep up the great penning.

[Xuru]

I always wanted to add more, but I think brevity works as well.

[Suchita]

Love intoxicated inspired a poem like this, aptly titled n well spoken.

[Xuru]

Thank you for the nice words.

[Suchita]

beautiful poem I thought it to be

[slfisher89]

Pefect dual image of physical and metaphorical dead end captures the grief of a broken relationship.Like the sharp bends and spine curves.

[Xuru]

Thank you fisher.

AnyONE who writes so coherently can do what's best in personal life, you know. Perhaps you need take another 'driving test'.. learn to see a way forward with more hope and trust in yourself. Your finely written, emotional poem - though short, provides answers that i suspect you already know!

[Xuru]

"Hope" is something I definitely need more of haha.
